    “Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life.”

    or

    “Do what you’re passionate about.”

    Just no. Most things I like don’t pay well and I started to resent the others while doing them professionally. Turning your hobby into your job is like setting your favorite song as your alarm. That’s my experience at least.
