Does seeking for a passion the best way to find a job? I was running a interior design business after I graduated from university. Interior design and being creative has always been my passion and I was very sure that I would like my job at that time. I was required to handle everything. I created a e-commerce website, arranged imports of textiles, managed finance and produce soft furnishing products. Consequently, I forgot to enjoy weekends. Activities which I enjoyed as hobbies became compulsory, hence they were not my hobbies anymore. I needed to give up what I truly wanted to adopt, in order to keep product costs lower. I found some business clients, however I was alone most time of a day. Even though my business was growing, I have decided to try a completely new occupation. I had a chance to work in a trading company as an administrator. To be honest, I was not sure if I would like the work at that time because I was not particularly interested in office paperwork. Despite the fact, I found myself being very happy to go to the office every day. I could get over difficult tasks by cooperating with my co-workers. I have learnt a lot of skills from my colleagues. Once again, I had some spare time to enjoy my hobbies. Some encourages me to find a field which I can be really passionate about. I think this can be a good approach to find a dream job. However, I have learnt that is not the only way to find a suitable job for me. I still enjoy selling my soft furnishing products as a hobby.
