Follow the bag... I repeat, follow the bag.

Some times I wish I had lived a normal life, gotten a regular job, and started a family early and lived a normal life. I have spent bulk of my adult life chasing my dreams, and although I have gotten accolades from it, I am still like the starving artist... I haven't reached the point where I feel I make enough to compensate me for all the time, blood, sweat, and tears I put into my craft of writing.

Even if I blow up tomorrow, I can't get my youth back, so some times I wonder if it wouldn't have been better if I killed my passion for writing and just chased the bag. Honestly, in this our Nigeria of today, I won't advise anyone to chase passion (except maybe you want to do popular Afro Beats music), just chase the bag and live a good life... Take vacations, build a family, and be respected... No one respects a man/woman without money.

If you want wealth and satisfaction, follow your passion, but it might take a long time before you reach the level of comfortability & wealth.

But if you want to be comfortable, but not necessarily satisfied, follow the money.

Nowadays Jacks of all trades eat the biggest share of the pie. I bet it was like that all along before greedy rich people start preaching against the habit. There is nothing the wealthy hate more than seeing poor/disadvantaged people grow to meet them financially.

In this country, we are in a situation where you have to think of the bag first. Sometimes following passion could lead to depression.

Na so we see am for NAIJA

Although talent and passion could secure the bag

Sometimes that dream you think is what you want is not what nature or God wants from you. So look down and see what you are really made of. Always follow that dream that will make you happy even if you are not seeing the money yet.

Hey guys. Been meaning to ask.

Given the current economic situation globally. Especially of our dear country.

If you had the chance of chosing between achieving your lifelong ambition
or
following a path that leads to plenty money and comfort but you'll probably have to forfeit the other ambition for life.

What would you do?

Ever heard of the starving artist phenomenon. You might have been stuck chasing your dreams to the detriment of your personal welfare in terms of finances and also the amount of time you're losing to this. Should it still be worth chasing?

Or do you still believe so much in your dreams to keep on persevering?

What's the thin line?



Please share your opinions, experiences and life lessons.
The wisest path to follow is convergence of the two options. It means you become rich doing what you love or while pursuing your best ambition.

People who follow this third path are the most resilient, because they have figured their journey to wealth and believe in it 100%.

Yes. He might have been passionate about becoming the biggest cement producer in Africa.

Truth is some passion needs money(physical cash $ connection) to execute first before you start to see positive result,so in my opinion it depends.

Follow what outs table in the food while the passion follows suit because if the passion doesn't put food on your table then it's not a passion as passion is a booster when truly harnessed




Anyway, Agriculture is life
