Changing your career to follow your passion is not wishful thinking but a reality experienced by many. Some people identify their passion early on and carve a career out of pursuing their passion. Others choose to keep their hobbies separate from work so that they can be free to enjoy their passions without the pressure of making an income. Still others spend their entire lives trying different kinds of work which they become passionate about eventually.
