Should you try in life to become really good at something you enjoy doing but have no talent for
Or should you stick to the things you're talented at even though the activity feels unrewarding most of the time and you'd rather not
and you feel like a SELLOUT every day?

senpai..

Both are good. They each have their own satisfaction. It is probably more satisfying to follow your heart than to follow other people's advice.

depends. what do you enjoy doing but arent talented in?

what are you talented at but dont feel so rewarded by?

tell us the story?

There isnt a clear answer to this. It depends on how much money each of those things can make, what are you life goals and how much comfort and luxury you want.

Generally, I'd say that if you can make a decent, pleasant living with the thing you enjoy you should go for that. But if you can make A LOT of money with the thing you're good at it's worth considering. For instance, if you really make a lot of money (300k+) you will be able to invest it and retire after a decade or so and at that point you will have a steady income without working so you can do whatever the fuck you want. But you'll still have to work for years or even tens of years doing something you don't enjoy. There's pros and cons to either choice, you have to decide which looks better for you. I for one went for the thing I'm good at and wins me a lot of money so I can "retire" as soon as possible and I don't regret it. But that's just because I want to be a filthy NEET for the rest of my life, maybe you have other goals and desires.

I'm in a bad mood right now excuse me for not being talkative.
All of them desu but mostly I care about Western philosophy, deep analytical stuff, metaethics and philosophy of science. I think that sums it up nicely.

>>17756028
Yes you egoist. Believe it or not people have stories to share on this subject even if both of us are lacking in that department!

>>17756028
What a pathetic reframing attempt btw.
>>
>>17756028
that's what this board is for you mouthbreather

why do /b/tards come on here and just use this board as an extension of /b/? Don't you have your own home to shit up?
>>
>>17755446
The latter. You need money more than you need good feelings.
