One of Joseph Campbell's famous quotations...
Many will say that they would love to follow their bliss but they have to pay the bills, don't have time, it's too late to change course, or any other number of excuses.
I would contend that for many of us, we don't really know what our 'bliss' is. Of course, it seems like it must be the greener grass on the other side. Certainly, the idea of walking away from a tough job and living in luxury seems blissful - but this is not what Campbell intended.
Sometimes we need to take a hard look at our life circumstances and make adjustments along our journey. The important thing is to be conscious. Make conscious choices. Embrace work that you love. Remember, even when you're "following your bliss", there will be tough sledding at times. This is certainly not a free ticket to quit.
