I follow the advise of "don't follow what you love, follow what your good at". With the reasoning being if you're good at something, you probably will enjoy it to some degree, and critically, you will be rewarded for being good at it.
You can be more passionate about something, but that does not naturally lead to getting paid more.
This is a very interesting take. I often struggle to understand what I really want from my career. No activity is entirely enjoyable, every job has parts you'll dislike. Taking a pragmatic approach by saying: "I'm good at this, it will produce good results, and I'll help more by doing it", actually makes your work more bearable. When you see the tangible outcomes of your efforts, it strengthens your sense of purpose. Looking back, I realize I don't want to chase the hedonistic desire for pleasure at all costs. Purpose trumps pleasure every time.
Choosing the right job often comes down to what matters most right now, stability or the work you enjoy. Many people weigh both and pick the path that supports their life today while still keeping room for growth later.
