Boy, I agree with doing something you like or love to do, but it just seems that it can be a difficult thing to have it pay the bills and provide a reasonable quality of life. I've worked a lot of jobs I did not like, that paid well but was just too many hours, too much stress and or not enough resources or help to take some of the heavy workload. High salary, at a job that is long hours and loaded with stress, often times will burn a person out, and cause other problems, some are better tolerating it than others, some to support a family and a life they want, not always a walk in the park though.
I think it's highly imperative that a person finds something as close to or equal to something they like doing, because sooner or later you will change that occupation, quit, get fired or frustrated with it, and it can be hard to stick out jobs you don't like. Most of us get put in the position where you can't walk away because you need a paycheck. Seems to be how it works, but I think it's important to never lose sight of what may work for someone in a career, so you sacrifice, work hard in the right direction, good chance things will work more favorably for a person if they have a goal to achieve, say like operating a business they like or a career that is actually satisfying, and like many successful people will say, don't lose sight of your dreams and aspirations for what you want. Things may not work out precisely as one wants, but you can be darned close or close enough to be away from going to a job working for the man that you hate, I don't think it gets much worse than going to a job you do not like or hate.
Money is one thing but happiness and satisfaction is another, I don't make squat compare to what I've done before, helping a friend long time friend, but even the worst of tasks, handling small square bales, some pain in the @ss equipment repairs, getting filthy dirty, soaked in sweat, dust and all the rest, don't seem to bother me in the least, it is good to be outside doing physical work, it will keep you in shape, and toughen a person up, actually while in construction I liked a little of both, office time, as well as time in the field, the latter more so. Best of luck to ya !!!
