Depends on what you value, what you want out of life and what's better for your mental well-being

Most of us chase checks in the hopes to get the freedom to follow our passions, but that doesn't work out for a lot of people

You have no idea the premise of the thread or watched the video, and just keep commenting. This further proves it. You're hilarious :laff::laff::laff::laff:
YOU are the one who lacks comprehension skills.

I completely understand what a passion is and following your passion vs doing something you're good at, but don't really care for much (aptitude). YOU are the one who has it wrong saying that money power and fame can't be someone's passion. Even after all of these posts and all of the explaining, you are too simple to understand that a passion does not have to be a tangible or physical thing.


Since you are so slow, I will explain it again and hopefully you get it this time.

If you go back to my last post, you can see the definitions of passion. Your idea of it is clearly incorrect according to common sense and the actual definitions. Here is the short version
Passion is a very strong feeling about a person or thing. Passion is an intense emotion, a compelling enthusiasm or desire for something.

Now back to jay z the example
Jay Z has a passion for fame, power money, being "on top". To get there, he used his "natural ability" to sell drugs to get money for their lable and to make music so, in turn, he could become more famous, rich and powerful, which is what he always wanted. It was his passion.

Here is another one.

Kim kardashian really wanted to be famous. She had/has a passion for being famous. She used what she was good at to get there. Which is her social skills and sex.

The last one. One more simple that involves tangible things which seems to be the only thing you can understand.

Noelle wants to be an artist, but she knows most don't make much money so she picks accounting as a major because she is good with numbers and knows she will make money instead of something in art which isn't as secure. She then gets her accounting degree and makes money from it and uses some of the money on her passion which is creating art. She continues to do so hoping that one day, she can quit her accounting job and completely follow her passion of wanting to be an artist, creating art and actually selling enough of it to make a living.

It is all the same. You just seem too simple to understand anything that isn't like the last example. Passions can be more than tangible or physical things.

Jay-Z's passion is drug dealing and basketball

But his aptitude is rapping and business. So he instead made these his life's work. And carried his passions with him. So what does he normally passionately rap about? Drugs and sports :sas2:

Afterall, you are the same idiot who claimed jay z has a passion for drug dealing. If he did, he would still be drug dealing and would have never made plans to do something bigger. he used it as a stepping stone for money to fund his label/music, so in this case, him selling drugs would fall under aptitude. :flabbynsick:

& he wasn't always good at rapping, he practiced after being rejected a lot. Also, if he started off so great at business, he wouldn't have needed dame. Those are skills he learned and used to help him reach what he is really passionate about which is money power fame.
