Everywhere you look, you will find people who are not happy about their work. They wish to get more out of life or are undecided about what to do next in life.
It is during these times where you hear a particular piece of advice. You may have given it to someone else or you may have heard it yourself:
Do what you love.
This phrase comes in many forms:
Follow your passion.
With hard work and determination, you can live the dream.
Find your calling.
