My family does this so often and its starting to upset me

I'm gonna be an engineer and a scientist, I'm also gonna make music with a band, develop games and make art as a hobby

Alr

Idk I could help you think of something

Ok

So, think, if you're good at art, you would be an animator

Just choose a job where you get paid to do one of your hobbies

Animation is hellish i would never

Terrible career advice.

Never choose something to do for the rest of your life as a job if it's one of your hobbies because it takes the joy out of that hobby and any time you try to do that thing unrelated to work it just reminds you of working

You get paid to do what you want

Dude it's some of the best career advice ever

It's the worst career advice you could give somebody

It ruins the joy of the hobby

And then you either get bored or too overwhelmed with a perfectionistic drive over that particular subject

Well buddy everything is fun if you're the one getting paid

You're trying to twist it in a way that ain't true

It's a commonly known fact among people who have chased their hobbies as jobs and is often told to schoolchildren during career exploration

What about people who want to expand their hobby?

People have dreams, you know.

I want to be a director but that's never gonna happen.

Or will it

Believe in yourself bri
