Every day, we have to decide whether it is big or a small one. about a day ago, Ka Jere just gave an assignment to us to lisent a podcast by Chris DO. This podcast talks about how our work can effect our daily lives positively or even lousy way.

So basically what should we choose for our work, passion over profit or profit over passion? Thats a tough decision to make because our lives depends on it. What Chris Do says is that we can do both of them actually by splitting our time. For instance, we can work for 2 week to gain profit and the other 2 to work on what we like. Before we get into that, I would like to mention the pro and cons of both working for profit or passion

The guest of the podcast is Mo, he runs a video commercial/brand business. This is his dream job because he has passion on it now it brings profit for him. But bit by bit he slowly hated it because its all about client works and there's no joy behind it. He also has no more free time to enjoy, the fun is going down. Its started to become a dilemma, doing passion= happy but broke or doing for profit= makes money but didnt have the joy. By the way Mo makes around $180k/year.

Chris says that we only live once, so we need to use it wisely. So we need to have time to have fun, but don't let it be a stumbling block. some people like to have fun but when he is at the peak of his career, he wastes his money on unrelevant things. 

This podcast helps me a lot to prioritize the things I should do in life.
