There are many diverse opinions about following one's passion and wealth. I read two stories of people who followed their passion, and in a short period of time, the businesses became very profitable.
In story 1,
Defossey left a job at Apple to open a BBQ restaurant in Mexico City. It made $9 million in sales last year. In story 2,
Sean Audet, a 30-year-old, spent $0 launching a food photography side hustle, and now he brings in $134,000 a year.
The people in these stories followed their passion and created wealth through it. What is your opinion on following one's passion in relation to wealth? Can your passion lead to an increase in your net worth?
That's definitely possible and you should focus on your passion before thinking of making money from it. These people just believed in their passion and grit and the money has followed them. Because if you're going to put money first in what you do, you'll get tired. But these people worked tirelessly and their motivation proved to them that they did the right thing to follow their passion.
If yes, what is stopping you from following it?
All of us have it but there's some force that stops us. Maybe the obligation that we've got in our personal lives but those who takes risk are the ones sees the good and bad results of it instead of those that don't do nothing at all.
