This is a book my husband swears by. Do you think its true that just because you are passionate about what you do and love what you do that you will succeed financially?

I believe if you have a passion for what you do it is more likely to succeed, I was going to open up a gift/craft shop years ago and I was so scared as I had never done anything like that before, several people told me the passion I had would see me through but I never did get the courage to do it and as it turned out it was the best thing for me as other things in my life happened that never would have if I had opened that shop...fate I guess

Hey Lilaclady, its great that it all turned out for the best but don't you sometimes wonder what great things might have happened had you gone with the shop?

very rightly said friend. earlier i wsa doing something that i didnt enjoy much and so never ever made good money with that, but now the work i do i just love it and the returns are also good.

Can I be very intrusive and ask what sort of work makes you happy and gives good returns?
