Passion is Powerful

So maybe “Follow your passion” isn’t always the best advice, but passion is powerful.

So how do you build something you love without letting it turn on you?

‍

A few simple guardrails:

‍

Separate the art from the business.
Protect time where you create for joy — not customers.

‍

Price like a professional.
Underpricing is the fastest way to resent what you once loved.

‍

Build systems early.
Passion gets tired. Processes don’t.

‍

Know your model.
Is this a lifestyle business? A growth company? A side income? Clarity reduces frustration.

‍

Keep something just for you.
Not everything you love has to monetize.

‍

Passion is fuel.
But sustainability keeps the engine running.

Have you found a way to protect your passion while building your business?
