A couple of years ago, I met a friend in Houston who was working for a firm. The money was good, the work was OK and there was travel. We were talking and it turns out he was miserable. We followed the discussion thread to its logical conclusion and I asked him the following. "What would you rather do than leave the comfort of your home and your family? In other words, what motivates you to get out of the comfort of your bed, your home, your loved ones and do something else?". He said he did not know.
Figuring the answer to the question would go a long way in doing what you really care about or your heart or your passion as the case the maybe.
Of course, we all have to make a living which is one big motivator but it is an economic motivator not a personal fulfilling motivator.
People who are very happy tend to find a happy medium between these two motivators.
So go forth and find your passion and find a balance between these two powerful motivators.
