Honestly, Not everyone have luxury to follow Passion..it’s easy to say Follow your passion but Passion doesn’t feed you all the time.. Passion works for people who are wealthy, and has strong supporting background whether it’s financially, so that if you fail in it you can always come back..for middle class or economical poor background it won’t work.. ‘Love what you are doing’, Not ‘do what you love’..

[@hellodude759]

Dear Karthikeya, love your speech, but I partially agree with what you said. Not everyone in india have a luxury to work on passion. Many of them do sacrifices and compromises based on their circumstances and conditions. Take an example of our own C V Anand, former commissioner and who is an IPS officer. He excels in cricket and who wanted to play for Indian team but he had to opt for IPS because of his financial background. Passion may give happiness but at the same time you gotta earn bread and butter for family. If you have strong financial background, you can fight tooth and nail to continue passion as your career. Who will support in below middle class families ? What if there is a failure? You have a school and your parents might be well off to support you inspite of not having job. Everyone wants to work on their passion but that’s hard in middle class families, I agree it works if you come from solid financial background. I believe in having patience rather going with passion. Instead take challenges, risks,, and excel on what oppurtunity you get in career. No offense, Peace!
