If you are working just to make ends meet then you will find yourself burned out, disheartened and depressed. In "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life" - Confucius talks about choosing a job that you love, even if the pay is low. You will find yourself happy and contented. Just look at all the travel bloggers out there.
