Five Reasons to Ignore the Advice to Do What You Love

July 13, 2014 By Spirit Company

Forbes published Five Reasons to Ignore the Advice to Do What You Love, outlining reasons it may not be a great idea to make a job out of the thing you love most.

In Newport’s book, So Good They Can’t Ignore You, he argues that following one’s passions can be a dead end.
