Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do!!!

Hi guys, Hope you all are doing good. I am doing good too. I came across this simple yet very effective quote which is so practical in life. Many a times in life, there comes situation wherein we need to do something for time being until we get the opportunity to do what we really want in life. It can be generally associated with career choices. Especially in current times, due to the pandemic, most countries economy was down. People lost their jobs. Hence, at this time, it's a practical thing to do whatever one gets as may be a part time thing in order to support themselves and the family. One can always look out for opportunities on the side for what one really wants to do in life. I appreciate people doing that as it's a sensible and practical solution. There are others who just sit and wait for their opportunity which isn't wrong if you don't have financial things to take care of. Generally I have seen many people following the first approach which I mentioned and there isn't anything wrong in it. One also need to occupy their minds apart from monetary benefit. Share your thoughts about it. Have a good day. Take care!!!

Ofcause I'm painting for pleasure even though I'm not selling any of them. The ones that I do by following a demonstration in art magazines I can't sell anyway for copyright reasons. I have several art books I'm learning from aswell as the magazines. I always wanted to be an artist. There's nothing else I want to do. I'm also waiting for the right guy and the chance to go and live in Cardiff.

Glad to know all about it. It's great that you were clear as to what you wanted to do in life and are doing it. Not everyone has that much clarity in life. Hope you get your right guy soon and for you to live in Cardiff. Take care

@Rashnag Thank you very much. Yes, I've only ever wanted to be an artist. It was hard at first because the careers adviser at school made me go off on a tangent for a while but I'm back on track now. I'm looking forward to finding a nice guy and going to live in Cardiff. It's a great place to live as it has everything I need - shops for materials etc, places to sell what I make and paint, a good church. And good health food shops. It's also not far from good open countryside and the sea! Also, it's where they film Doctor Who! Win win!

I used to think I should do this but off late what I have to do has become a permanent thing. Does that mean I'm giving up on what I WANT to do? I dunno...

Oh ok dear. It happens at times. You can keep looking for opportunities in which you really want to work till then it's nothing wrong to continue what you are doing. Yes if you are unhappy doing what you do then have to think about it. Take a break if possible for you and then try again. Take care

Yes, that's true, we should accept the opportunity that comes to us, if we reject it then it's a waste of time. Sometimes we don't get the things easily which we want to be in our life.

Some of these motivational quotes are very spot-on. If we work hard and consolidate our financial position, then we'll be in a better position to enjoy the things we like doing.
