Career Choices: Money Or Passion?

[Guest Makaikishi]

Passion.

 

If your driving force is only for money, then you won't be truly happy.

[yhance]

passion....because money does follow after that....it depends on how you make your passion into a great generating income

[Jillian]

Money then Passion

[neKnock]

Passion works for me. That's why I love my job.

[imogen]

money...

then pursue passion when you're stable.

[Defiant]

Passion.

 

I want to be young and passionate... Rather than old and late when I start my passions.

Ryt now i have a high pay job as an office engineer, my passion as an engineer is to work in fieldwork which means the hands on job where you can develop your technical skills and follow a different career path, ryt now im trap in office with all the paperworks and calculations. im still young and single and pursuing my passion in work means to resign from my present job and apply in other companies and receive a small salary, problem is my parents wouldn't want me to find another job..

 

Im still doing my best to my present job and my situation ryt now is getting difficult, is anyone out there in the same or hav been in this situation? it would be nice if you share your opinion. i belong to a middle class family.

currently on road 1...still looking for that job that would fulfill me and would make me feel like I'm not really working at all, just having fun, learning, and earning at the same time. wish me luck. :thumbsupsmiley:

money muna. kapag may sandalan ka na, pwede na yung passion.

[EKcivic]

money first then passion after u have saved much to sustain it

[inode]

Passion. I'm a firm believer that money can not buy happiness.

[peeved]

As long as I don't go hungry...passion!

[sky_walker]

money...gusto ko stable na muna ko...

[borderlineflytrap]

Do what you love. The money will follow after that.

[cordonbleu]

nagtatrabaho ako ng patayan ng tatlong taon. narealize ko rin, hindi ito ang gusto ko sa buhay ko.

 

nakaipon naman ako ng malaki, pero kung bibigyan ako ng choice, id rather have my 3 years back, work 8 to 5 (or 9 to 6) and have a stable relationship with someone special. as right now, im stuck by my lonesome. pursuing my passion would make me feel better about myself.

 

in short, money really cant buy happiness. never think that you can get back something that has been lost for good. quarterlife crisis talaga.

 

ps. ayun andaming nakarealize nito sa amin. di ko binibilang ang mga ka opis kong umalis sa kompanya namin. baka sumunod na rin ako very soon.

passion.

[Guest Incognito13]

Unrelenting passion.

[detective kyuu]

ryt now definitely money....but if things were ok at home its gotta be passion, its sad to work and do things i dont like rather than giving so much effort to things that makes me happy.........

[wyette]

passion.

 

iba pa rin ang fulfilled ka emotionally kesa fulfilled ka financially.

 

 

 

PS: pero that will be a different thing if you got a family to sustain, of course.

[Touching_drip]

In real world, moolah IMHO, cheers

Passion.

 

Even if you earn the biggest paycheck, if you don't love your job, you're destined to fail.

[scarmantle]

As much as I'd like to say Money, because it's what I need. I really don't see the point for working for something I can't contribute to passionately. But, you see, passion progresses. Passions lead to more passions. I just learned that I liked photography and now, I'm using my passion of graphic arts to gfind the money to get into photography.

 

Though, some may care to argue that passion can be saved for later, it also wanes. One day, it's this, in a few years it's that. My passion for special effects is still there, but given the circumstances, I'm not as hot for it as saving up for my camera.

Life is to short to spend it doing something you loathe-find your passion and be successfull at it!
