Passion is important but it is an emotional state. Don't FOLLOW your passion instead BE passionate about what you are doing.
No
I found out that in order to be happy and enjoyable is to let it naturally came to you, if you're forcing yourself to be positive then it will ended up being a mess, at least from my experience.
Funny thing: my passion was engineering. My good idea was selling my artwork and getting on stage. I’ve made way more money doing that then I have in my pursuit of engineering so far. It’s just been a much more rewarding job fiscally, however, I won’t stop my studies because I know one day that degree will take me somewhere.
The general idea is stay motivated and just do your homework. That’s how you get wealthy.
Scott Adams sees through all the BS. I love his original and practical perspective.
It's not original. Just reworded.
I've been following his podcast for the last 3 years and he's a pseudo intellectual. He's only educated. His intuition is horrible and it wouldn't be if he was actually smart. He was in the right place at the right time for Dilbert. His books are just reworded self-help books and basic philosophy.
@@dangerous8333 Everyone needs Haters. ☝️
And he got cancelled.
@@henrys3629 And he tried to. He literally said on his podcast that this is what he needed to do because he was getting ready to retire anyway and he was going to try to get canceled. They took the bait. Haha. Because everybody knows how stupid cancel culture is right now and it's only on one side. I share some liberal views, but the left has gone completely crazy and nuts. Hypocrites. Fascists. Which they don't even know the real definition of they just watch CNN spew propaganda. Fentanyl is killing more people than covid did but yet they won't do anything about it. Even though it's coming through the border you know it's racism to try to stop illegals from entering.
Hahahahahahahahahahahhshaha
came here because of him being canceled. This guy is amazing. And he's right about it as he is with what he said the other day.
i have to say scott adams is going to open many of our minds about career and passion , such a smart guy .
He's educated, he's not smart. Follow his podcast if you want proof.
A very insightful person, banned from speaking at all colleges for liking the President.
When did intellectual debate turn into hive-minds and shunning?
It all started in 1848 when Marx published the communist manifesto, that later inspired idiots to kill 100,000,000 people and invent PC.
Correlation is not causation.
He didn't even particularly like the president. He just said he'll win because of his world class persuasion skills.
This guy is solid and wise. Love his comics too in fact!
Finally an author who calls BS on the annoying word of the day, "passion". Thanks for injecting some realism for people who want to achieve in life.

Did you see the livestream where he threatened to end his own life? Maybe there’s something to this whole passion thing after all.
"... energy ... and health ..." are the core and foundational to a great human experience for most people. Passion comes later.
Starts with proper optimal human diet backed by science.

Adams is probably my favourite intelectual
*Things poor people say.
@@Gnolomweb you sound pretty miserable.
Scott Adams books described a printing company I worked at. Almost needless to say it is no longer trading.
Very different prospective, real wisdom👌🏽
Ya gotta love this guy!
To be precise, passion is a great thing, but don't let passion displace good judgment. You need both in proper measure.
This is almost true, my dad was born to be an airline pilot, and from ages 18-65 he literally did nothing but fly airplanes. That’s passion.
This message needs to get out there to combat the foolish "passion is the most important thing" message.

This was hilarious lol great speech love it
love this
Crassus..
The one that defeated Sparticus
Made his wealth from public
pay to use toilets...
His Dad looked down on him
for how he made his money...
Until one day
Crassus took in his hand a pile
of gold coins from his stash..
Put them under his Dad's nose..
Saying...
'Do these coins smell any worse
than yours?'...
And his father replied "Perhaps, though it may be your fingers"
Many artists and writers are passionate about what they do and die poor. You have to be passionate about something that pays the bills. I know my passions never paid very much and few people could understand Applied Phonology or Phonemic Transcription Analysis which I invented but no one is interested so it pays me $0. I can tell you it’s useful in some applications but as no one is interested in hearing about it or learning it then it will die with me and at 72 years old that’s not far off. That was my passion but it never paid a dime.
Ye Ol' Dilbert
Yes!
I completely agree. I have a passion for gardening but I'm not going to quit my very well paying job as a RUclips commentator / troll ( 😁 ) to go into gardening.

brilliant
There's a lott of truth to this, but frankly I've known a grand total of seven millionaires in my lifetime. Only ONE of them claimed to be "happy" about his life situation, and he's the one that went into the field he was passionate about to a fault (software design). The others are consumate professionals who just sort of shrug indifferently whenever I look them up and ask that question.
Scott may have failed at 30 things he was passionate about, but the one thing he was wildly successful at he WAS also passionate about (just not moreso than the others). Passion, IMO, is a key component to success and hapiness, it's the fuel that runs the engine. But it IS just one component: you need MORE than passion. But you still need it.
"Rich people are unhappy" is just excuse mentality. Most people are unhappy. Having enough so you can do exciting things and not have to worry about bills or emergencies certainly brings you closer to happiness than being poor.
Are we talking about passion or happiness? I am pretty happy and successful but I cannot say anything I am passionate about until circumstances elicit the passion reaction. Work doesn't elicit passion. Fact. It does elicit a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction which translates to happiness.
Brent,
Or Tnerb, whichever you prefer, the point is that you need to find a system that works, or that maximizes the probability of success across multiple dimensions and multiple disciplines. Passion may be one component (and I stress ONE component), but there are certainly many others. Scott wrote about it in his book 'How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big; Kind of the Story of my Life.' In it he discusses having a systems approach to life.
Being a millionaire isn’t much to brag about anymore

Yeah, people say, “Rich people are unhappy,” as an excuse to not take any action or discourage their loved ones. Most of these people only think about money in terms of buying material things. They never think of money to buy their TIME and money to be able to “take their time” going through life.
Passion!!!
It’s giving what others want, the more people want it the move motivating it is to do more. Or plain natural talent and use it , then reinvest profits. Just my opinion
Passion is very important guys, he didn't mention that he started drawing at a very young age, all the other stuff he did was him veering off his passion thus why he quit and they all failed.
But he drew all the inspiration for the content of Dilbert from his stultifying office jobs!
Good habits
Passion is 1 ingredient, of many, you need to succeed.
No, it's not. My father sold plumbing parts for 25 years. Was never passionate about it, but he was wealthy because he is a good busonessman.

I have passion for Dilbert. More than Dilbert. His creator.

Why would successful people say, "Well, I'm smarter than poor people!."
This is a hit or miss.
I think they'll say it along the lines of, "Well, you follow what you're interested in, what you're good at, and what other people will pay you for."
But, I don't know. Maybe he is right.
Great Advice
This is a good message for those who do not have that one thing that drives them the most. It's not applicable on all though. This may sound extremely cliched but I used to think like this till I found that what can be considered as "my passion". I know multiple people in my life who have that exact same feel or something or the other.
No you don't. No 2 people on the planet feel the exact same way about any 2 things. You're a great example of cognitive dissonance.

Too bad you don't have a passion, maybe you never will, in which case I feel for you. It's like how Harry told Lord Voldemort "you will never understand love, friendship" and Lord Voldermort was like WTF.
lol I so agree

Greed and commitment to an idea that serves the greed.
I'll sum it up for those with no time: Passion is B.S.
said the same thing on a new vlad interview. same thing.
This planet has billions of people so he still needs to say the same thing a few more times

Scott got two doses of the cursed v'axine. He talks a lot about money but made a huge mistake with his life.
Trying over and over and failing and so called "grinding" he speaks of the word is resilient and his passion is money, and you can be passionate about light fixtures to wipping the elderlies asses his mindset is twisted he lost his passion along the way to money hate all you want nobody likes truth staring you in the face. 1 Timothy 6:10
Dispassion.
And they stopped inviting him to speak because he spoke favorably about Trump. Wisdom wasted.
but they still allow kids with guns
TDS is strong in this one .
Well this video did not age well with this guy. Cannot believe he attended UC Berkeley Haas of Business.
I think it did age well because it proves that he's a very intelligent man and what he said the other day is correct. Why don't you ask if 50% of black people saying "being white is not good" isn't racist?
Hmm, me thinks a sound relationship with God perhaps?
Don’t take advice about passion from a guy with no passion. That’s my advice.
I’m not going to take life advice from a guy who threatened to kill himself during a livestream. Sorry I just am not going to trust his opinions on human emotions.
When was that?
