On Purpose with Jay Shetty

NOTE

Start Small, Think Long: The Journey to Your Passion

Pursuing a passion doesn't necessitate abandoning your job or lifestyle; it can be integrated into your existing commitments while leveraging the benefits of your current role. Engaging in your passion project alongside a full-time job allows for stability and gradual growth. Transitioning should occur only when the demands of both worlds conflict, ensuring a smooth shift. Initiating your journey can start with small steps, such as creating minimal content or engaging with audiences to gauge their interests. A successful creative career often requires significant time investment before achieving recognition or income, underscoring Hofstadter's Law: projects often take longer than expected. Sustained effort and patience are critical, as many creators spend years honing their skills with little or no financial reward. Embracing a step-by-step approach enables you to gain the necessary experience and insights without the pressure of immediate success.
