DISQUS

What a great reminder that "follow your bliss" is more than a statement. As a career counselor, it just makes sense to work at something you love whether or not it's traditional employment. When we're using our natural talents and skills, a sense of flow takes over and we're energized and productive. On the other hand, when we're forced into doing something we despise, our energy drops and we're more than likely ineffective and resentful.
Good for you for sticking to your guns--even in the face of "good advice" from your friends and neighbors.

This is a GREAT topic! I love your story. Thank you for sharing what many of us have gone through! As we know, sometimes we have to go through the bad to get to the good....thank goodness when the good is so good!
