They say if you do what you love you'll never work a day in your life, which of course is bullshit.
I love what I do but I work twice the hours I used to and haven't had a vacation in 3.5 years. This is the first year that I feel I've replaced my corporate income from 2009 and the sacrifices I've made to build my business have been profound.
I feel it's been worth it and the future looks great, but it has been very difficult. I understand I'm a lunatic but I had to do something creative and get out of the soulless corporate games I hated so much.
My questions are these:
Do you love what you do?
Do you feel you had to sacrifice security and income to be able to do what you do?
If you don't love what you do, do you feel your security and income are sufficient to justify doing something you don't love?
