Love What You Do And The Money Will Come

If it often said that you should love your job.

This advice applies to people who are their own boss. If you are working for someone in something that you have no interest in, its hard to love your job.

Because the way the world works, there are many of us who will be doing a job that we do not like because we need the money. So, this advice of loving what you do should apply to those who are pursuing their own path.

What if you are doing something you don't like?

Well, the answer is simple. Just change your job and follow your dreams. If you love being an architect, go for it. You might be working in an architect firm but you are at least doing what you love. When you build your own business and be the boss, that is even better.

Is It True That When You Love Your Job You Will Eventually Be Rich?

There is a lot of misconception about the idea that if you really love what you do, you will eventually be rich.

The truth is, you can hate your job and still be very rich. You don't need to like your job to make money. Most of us will start our working life doing something that we don't like because we needed the money.

Loving what you do does not guarantee that you will be rich. It makes it less boring when you work on something you love. When you work, you are going to be sweating and putting a lot of effort. Since you need to work, why not sweat and put effort on something that you love?

Do A Job That You Love

In today's world, you can always do something that you love.

It is easy to choose a job that is in an area that interest you in this modern world. Thanks to the internet and so many advancement in technology, you can be assured of a job that relates to your field of interest.

The only problem is the amount of money you get when you first start out.

Okay, so you are a lawyer earning $15,000 a month. But you do not like your work as a lawyer. Going to court, reading document, talking with clients and then drafting documents and contracts and working 15 hours a day. The promise is if you work hard enough in 3 years time, you will be a partner and will be earning at least $50,000 a month.

But your interest is in photography.

You already have a Nikon camera, an expensive DSLR you could afford to buy because of your salary as a lawyer.

So what do you do now?

You would like to earn money in the photography business but you are worried you can't support your family if you quite your job as a lawyer. And your kid is already a teenager and he might need the money to go to college.

Weigh The Pros & Cons Of Pursuing Your Interest

If you plan to pursue the area that you love, you would still encounter a lot of difficulty.

People who want to start a business doing what they love have to know that most businesses will fail within 3 years. Are you willing to let go of your comfortable and secure job for something that is uncertain?

If you need money to bring food to the table, it will be foolish to quite your job.

Ask yourself these questions:
  • If I quite my job right now, will I have enough money to support myself and my family till my business give me enough money?
  • Will I need a lot of money if I want to build this business?
  • Is my wife and family supportive of this?
Weigh the pros and cons of pursuing what you love.

​If there are more pros than cons, go for it. If there are more cons than pros, then you need to at least delay it.

Pursue Your Dream While Working

Here is some wisdom.

You could pursue your dream while working your day job. Many successful people have done just that.

In fact a billionaire by the name of Sara Blakely did just that. While she was building her dream of selling undergarments to women, she still kept her day job. It was only until her products were recommended on Oprah Winfrey's show that she quit her job.

Smart woman!

You should do that to. Unless you are financially sound and stable, you should work your dreams in your spare time. At night or Saturdays would be good.

YouTubing Or Building A Website While Having A Day Job

Some people earn so much money on You Tube or through their website that they do not need to have a day job.

If you are one of them, you know it is possible to support a family through online businesses. If on the other hand you are one of those who plan to make a living through blogging or creating your own website or being a YouTuber, then you need to be realistic.

You can't really make money in the first few months of going online. There are exceptions but odds are you will only start earning serious money after a year. It takes time for your posts and content to get popular. It takes time to rank well on search engines.

​So while you are waiting for all these to happen, you need to keep your day job. Once you get to earn a few thousand dollars consistently online (every month), you can then quit your day job and focus full time on making more money online.

Loving Your Work And Making Money Through It Is The Best

Once you have reached the status where you are doing what you love and making enough money from it to support yourself and your family, that is the best feeling in the world!

Once financially stable, just do what you love out of interest. Give it your best and don't worry about the money. As you polish your work and water it with lots of love, your products and services will get better and better. 

James Dyson, the billionaire inventor of Dyson Vacuum Cleaners just loves to create new products that people want. He is not focused on the sales but he is focused on making great inventions.

​That is what you should aspire to be.
