To Do What You Love

by Danny de Wit

How many days have you spend thinking: ,,This job sucks, but it pays the bills so I’ll have to muddle through…’’ ?

How often when this happened did you achieve something great and worthwhile? Probably not often. Probably never.

It’s completely clear why you have to do this. Bills need to be paid. Everybody gets that.

Some people would say: ,,Only do what you love.’’. But it isn’t quite that simple is it? It can be very hard to go from your job to making your money by doing what you love. A jump that might be just to far to make just by yourself.

And even if you succeed, then often it brings along new things you don’t want to do either. Like bookkeeping, cold calling, making deliveries, you name it. New things that are not your strength either.

The main fundamental goal of Open Company is to make it easier for people to make their living by doing what they love.

It’s simple: I don’t want to eat burgers, made by someone who has to make burgers. I want to eat a burger made by someone who loves to make burgers.

We have a great idea to make that work for many things, including making burgers. We want you to take your passion back. Stay tuned.

    I agree with you to some degree, but I believe that there is one important point to point out: the thing that you love to do may not be around for long…

    I’ve just posted an article: Don’t Pick What You Love to Do – It Will Hurt
