I think there is a big difference between thinking you want to do your hobby/passion as a job and understanding you may only like one small part of it.

For example, you might have a passion for writing on the weekends, but to write as a job it takes writing every day, hitting deadlines, pitching books, getting rejected, making changes you don't want to, etc., etc.

The advice is sound, I think a lot of people just don't think through the reality of what a job in their field of passion looks like.

I've been a professional athlete for a long time and it's the thing people get wrong the most thinking they want to have their hobby as their job. That's why they love it, because its a hobby!

If you only want to do the "job" after you have financial stability, you don't want a job, you just want more time to do your hobby.
