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 believe I’ve heard this once put thusly: “If you make your avocation your vocation, you’ll get no vacation.”
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.
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.
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.
So true.
That motherfucker is high on the Evulz.
