> It is very important that you only do what you love to do. You may be poor, you may go hungry, you may lose your car, you may have to move into a shabby place to live, but you will totally live. And at the end of your days you will bless your life because you have done what you came here to do. Otherwise, you will live your life as a prostitute, you will do things only for a reason, to please other people, and you will never have lived, and you will not have a pleasant death.

Thanks for sharing! Timely advice for me 🫂
the first three lines describe my life right now, except I don't even have my own shabby place. :) but I am surely full on immersed in and exploring the cutting edge of freedom movement which is what lights up the fire in my heart and what I am passionate about.
Love this! Thanks for sharing Ava!
I justbront know what "to thing I love to do" IS!
You are not alone in that regard. In that case, it's about allowing yourself the freedom to explore the answer to that question.
I don't think this is good advise, doing what you love without thinking about if you can make a living out of it is poor advise, specially for men.
You can love what you do, no matter how big or small it is, but strive to do something that others also need and thus you can make a living out of it.
If you can achieve both, doing what you love and be economically successful, great! 🤙🏻 but if you have to choose you better pick a good job over being happy in the short term by avoiding the crap you don't want to deal with.
it depends on what "love" we're talking about, I guess. when "what we love" comes from a place of immediate pleasure or maintaining an image of who you are and what you are supposed to love is not going to be good for anyone. but if do "what you love" comes from a genuine place, it is also a call from life and it will benefit all. and I risk to say we won't know the difference thinking about it.
