you have to balance both.

 

yung mga kilala kong passion talaga sinundan at ayaw lunukin ang pride/pumasok ng office ng 8-5/ayaw mag overtime, many ended up in a dead end career. Masaya ka nga sa work but you come home in a shabby apartment while your friends go abroad during the weekends. Unless you're dependent on your rich parents di ko sure how good of a life is that.

 

mga kilala kong sumunod sa pera, true it pays well pero hindi na nagprogress sa career. Pag di ka interested, you won't take the extra effort. Halfway through the race, talo ka ng mga competitors mo sa skills, sa connections, sa effort.

See I've got my own Quarter life crisis. blink.gif

 

We all get to this one point in life where we make a final choice which road we'll be taking. Money or Passion?

 

ROAD 1:

If you had this job, everything was going well, good business was moving you up the ladder, and you were being bumped up to a very important position (say Business Develpment for example), and it ensured travel, profit shares, and good earned big pay, but it didn't move you... It didn't excite you... It didn't make you feel any alive, and it made you feel boring and dead, and not to mention the long hours of working 6 days a week and sometimes 7... BUT it would give you all the money in the world and give you what you want (security and material things).

 

ROAD 2:

Then there's the other road. Something that excites you, makes you feel alive, and would give you all the worthy experiences in the world... A life of meaning. But it didn't assure you any money or wealth, and you've never done it professionally and you'll be starting from scratch, at the bottom... But is a life of an artist and this is what you want to be.

I'd like to know what my fellow MTCers have to say... Well actually I just want to know what to do, I have actually told friends in past to go for ROAD 2 with ease, but the choice is actually very hard to make when its your life... Haaaayy.. It's so hard to turn away from money.... I'm 23 and these are the two roads I have to choose on SOON. It's like a choice between being Nathan or Peter Petrelli (sorry, "Heroes" fan right here!)... tongue.gif

 

Peace Out!

 

 

If wala kang pamilya and medyo makakasandal ka sa magulang mo, follow your passion (singing, writing, painting) etc. pero kung may mga taong umaasa sa iyo, kailangan mo ng continuos cash flow. kailangan mong magbayad ng tuition etc.

 

AKo gusto ko talaga maging race car driver/motorcycle racer pero di ako kikita duon kaya tiyaga tiyaga na lang sa pag aalaga ng baboy at pag gawa ng subdivision
