No matter what people claim and say about passion and following your heart over money etc, one universal truth seems to be that if you do not earn money even for a month (doing whatever job you are doing, like or no like), all the hell breaks loose in your mind. You feel unworthy, do not want to meet people or friends, and become irritable - Worse, the passion you might have left all this for too seems risky, unsustainable, or crazy. You feel like a sinking ship and wonder if you have just made the biggest mistake of your life.

It is only for some to be able to reject the poverty of belly over the poverty of soul.

Another truth is both these classes of people (the passion over money AND the money is the passion) do well.

The ones who do not do well and live in insecurity are the ones who, by choosing one, long for the other. And vice versa.
