Ben Chestnut on Business and Passion
“Do what you love is not the same as love what you do.”
You always hear people say, ‘do what you love, do what you love.’ That’s partly true, but if it’s business, if you start a business doing what you love, it will kill you, it will kill your passion.
If you like to bake and you start a bakery, you will hate baking very soon.
I like ‘love what you do’ better because, it’s kinda like, wherever you are just be good at it, embrace it, love it, and eventually success will find you.
I actually kind of believe that.
But you never forget your passion.”
