Description

This video addresses the concept of passion in the context of career and professional growth. Louis challenges the common advice to simply "follow your passion," arguing that this can lead to frustration and failure if one's passion does not align with their skills. Instead, he advocates for finding what you are good at and developing a passion for it by recognizing the value it brings to others and the satisfaction it provides. Louis shares his own experience of initially wanting to be a recording engineer but realizing he lacked the necessary skills. He found success and fulfillment in repairing studio equipment, a field where he could make a tangible difference and earn a living.
