Turning your Interest into Business (Part 2)

By Ian Kleine

We talked about the lackluster state of living, about how each and every person is limited by their physical boundaries and lack of financial security. About how a family is one unit, but how it is separated in itself. About the generic views of each member (though it is not true in the whole sense). We talked about the importance of communication, empathy and understanding. Now let's talk about respect and common ground.

It is truly man's dream to live his interests to the fullest. What could be more fulfilling than doing the thing you love, and getting paid to do it? Unfortunately, welcome to reality, where a job is a job, not a vacation.

There is a reason it's called a job, because you won't like doing it. You earn money from it, but it's from something you don't like doing. Or something that tires you so much, you don't get to spend and enjoy the fruits of your labor. It's a sad piece of existence, I know.

So, basically, you get to pick two options. It's either (a) you find yourself a job that fits your criteria of fun and enjoyment. Which is like finding your soul mate amidst the seven or eight billion something people in this world. Tough cookie for that. And salutes for you should you succeed in this endeavor. Seriously, the people that are able to find this can be only a handful. And that includes successful people.

The other option (b) is employing yourself in the chosen interest. Which is, I say, a lot easier than scouring the net and turning proverbial rocks over to find the perfect job.
