Find what you’re pasÂsionÂate about. Don’t rush into someÂthing just because someÂone expects you to do that. Take the time, whatÂevÂer that may be and howÂevÂer long that takes you, to realÂly figÂure out what your pasÂsionÂate about. Once you can find that thing – make that your job, make that your career. That’s the best piece of advice I could ever give.
