Money or Passion?
Mateusz Charytoniuk ・ Dec 2
“You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.” – Zig Ziglar
Money flows in whenever you help people to get what they want. But without being passionate or enthusiastic in what you do to help people.
It is very hard to sustain one's drive for a long time. Especially when obstacles or failures comes knocking at your door.
Bouncing back up and using your failures or obstacles as a stepping stone. This requires one's passion without it, you give up pretty easy.
Thanks for highlighting that, really interesting discussion 👍
Woot! Thank you! I'm glad you dug this one. 🙌
For me, passion is the driver. But you also need to earn a living. Passion should be the main driver though, not money. If you focus on the money you'll be out sooner than you think. For me, even if I were to move into another industry, I'd still code. I love tech!
Passion if you want long term
I mean I like money. But I strongly believe you need to have passion for the craft to get good. And I love writing code that is used by others. So for me it's definitely a passion.
Chase your passions and money will come. Chase money and you may never find your passions. - Colin Wright
