I don't know who needs to hear this, but please don't feel pressured to monetize a hobby or skill you're passionate about. It's important that you always love it. This is a lesson I've learned the hard way.
@killyourfm Making a hobby or passion into work can cause pressure to do that hobby which can lead to one hating it.
@tsargoth bingo.
@killyourfm Its a difficult leason for some. Society pressures everyone to make more and more money. Its an easy road to start on because of one's passion and skill. Before long one can feel forced to work on it just to survive.
@tsargoth And it's such a temptation. The false promise is that "I can do this more often if make money doing it." Which is mostly true, but it comes with ALL the drawbacks...
@killyourfm Exactly. I get it but society messures success monitarily. Its not about what someone creates or how fulfilled one is but about how much money one has. Everyone needs money to survive its a trap.
