A coworker used to say
- trabalhe com o que você ama, e não amarás mais nada
Which roughly translates to
- work with the thing you love, and you won’t love anymore
Bad advice. If you make your hobby your job, you’ll lose a hobby.
Funny meme though.
I work with programming, and I used to think this was the case. The reality is that I just do it even more as a hobby as well.
Depends on a lot of things. I started an apprenticeship machining, and now I want to turn my garage into a machine shop.
I think the important thing is that you make sure you keep some of it for you.
If I did turn my garage into a machine shop, it would be tempting to start taking orders. That’s where my hobby would turn into more work, having to meet orders and timelines.
you are mistaking having a hobby with having a true passion for something.
the problem is that a lot of people are passionate about nothing.
I believe I’ve heard this once put thusly: “If you make your avocation your vocation, you’ll get no vacation.”
So true.
That motherfucker is high on the Evulz.
