When you're at a career crossroads wondering, "Should I take the job?" you'll likely wonder if you should pursue the safe bet or focus on the work you love.
In this video, I discuss why NOW is always the right time to do the work you love, and why declining a job offer that is the "safe bet" in favor of pursuing your passion can never lead you down the wrong path.

  • @psuncar Fantastic! thanks for watching!

  • This was just what I needed to see at this particular moment in my life. Not that I didn't already know my decision, but it's good to see that other ppl think the same way.

  • @divalizzous awesome. Rock on!!

  • I want to do something I love, but for now I'll settle for a normal job.

  • @therealSantos92 you can enjoy a "normal" job too :) Just saying...

  • you made my day Marie. i was desperately in need of this video. Thank you lotz of love. 

  • I really hope that he took your advice. At 45, I wish that I would have pursued my dream. At this point, I'm not too old but like you said...it's tougher. 

  • Loved your advice! Definitely run, not walk, to your dream job!

  • I want you to totally A my Q ;) , but seriously though , Nice video ! ; there's no story more poignant than a young college grad choosing a path. Do I choose evil or good ? Do I choose traditional or avant gard ? Do I choose monotony or excitement and joy ? Choices, choices .... !

  • Hilarious. Not the advice but I love seeing the ends of your videos just because of the funny stuff. You actually make business look so cool ;)

  • Such an inspiration!

  • Great advice!! I wish someone had thrown that A at me when ~I~ was in my mid twenties lol.

    And um... rotf at the end .. "Take mah clothes awf!"

  • Maybe he should take the job just to have a cover before the "Dream Job".Who knows how long it will take to get the "Dream Job" so my brother from another mother take a normal before u take your long life dream job....

  • whoops - no tweetable link in the desscription.
