[Discussion] Should I be here, there or everywhere? >.<''

10:16 PM

Hey hey foodies and lovelies. Hope you guys are doing well as July is just around the corner. ^^

Since most of the time I share stories about Food, new journey in Lifestyle, Beauty, Travel and etc, why not we have some discussion like personal chat??? (ceh wah... sounds like very serious oh.. ^^"")

The title of today's discussion is: 

Between a Job that you love and a Job that you don't even know,
which will you choose / do?



I know it's very personal discussion, just.... I need some advise and knowledge from you guys about career decision making. I do read and survey few articles about Blogging journey, how to earn money from blogging and much more. Why do I study about this article? Due to my last year's accident story, is way too hard for me to continue my dream job (which I chase this job for 3 years before the confirm employment), back to my Broadcast Media life (where I can't travel and stay active like last time) and I'm a lil lost in my Dancing life (I'm a celebrity's dance instructor before this nightmare begins). I know it's about fate and when there's a way being blocked. there's a better way coming up. 

I don't even really remember how to write Japanese

I'm lucky enough that there's a lot of job out there that giving me a lot of benefits if I'm with them, but most of the Job is not my cup of tea (I should not be very choosey, right? ^^""). I do understand that I can succeed in Blogging journey no matter how hard it is, as long as I put 101% of effort and time, there is no issue. I do even know that living in our dream life, happy life is confirm there, BUT... can I survive? I still need stable income to clear my education debt and etc. Should I take up that Job (that is not my cup of tea job) to survive so that I can have better future?


Hope to get advise and some ideas from you guys about this as I'm still new in this industry. What is a Must, Mustn't, Do's and Don'ts that I should think before I made a choice. Really sorry if you guys don't really understand what I'm talking about as I just main tulis saje since my head is really pain of making decision. Thanks in advance if lovelies and foodies do give me some comments, advise or ideas as it's an opportunity for me to look further.

Hope to get back my life that can be better me. Foodilicious ^.^

  1. Do both...hehehhe For me I try not to rely on one source of income...
    Why do both? better secure of future, in terms of stability. Plus the job that you love will be easy for you to handle as you will always have the motivation to do it..regardless of whether you are tired or not...
    the hate job, well, you need the money..so yea..hahhahaha :P
    Its just my view though...

  3. Hi hi! I'm in my last semester currently and will be joining the work force soon! Just a personal opinion, I think maybe you can look for job which you doesn't like but yet it provides you with certain benefits. haha opportunity cost! Need to sacrifice either one><"

  4. As a newbie i think better you just accept whatever they offered you for you to survive in the beginning stage of this blogging industry. Once people out there are familiar with you then sure you will get more jobs. Just explore first and you will discover is it your passion or not..

  7. For me, I still need a job to provide steady income to support my life. Blog can be do it as part time and hobby where it can generate little incomes as pocket money.

    If possible, try continue do both at the same time. It might need so persistence and a lot of hard works to do so, but you will feel very satisfied with your life by end of the day ^_^

  9. I think alot of career decisions should be also based on character.
    Some would be able to adapt easily and change while climbing up the ladder.
    But there are also some who work better in a constant state, and will falter if change happens.

    Which are you?

    Next question is what do you want to be in 5 years?

    What is your definition of success?
    Rich? Famous? Comfortable?

    Aim for that idea of success, and make your decision on that, I guess, since there is never just 1 right answer.

  10. If you think you can give full commitment and love doing all these stuff related to blogging, then you can focus more on blogging but take it as part time job first. Once it's on stable stage, then you might consider to make it full time. Good luck yo!

  11. We are living in a world that needs money to support everything! I would like find a job as I have my own commitment to pay monthly. I blog for the interested of writing it, I wouldn't call it full time unless I am already succeeding.

  13. Apple, added u in fb unintentionally but never regret it. The traffic accident was tragic for u but thanks God you're ok now.
    To make a living from blogging you have to be professional like a trained journalist, write with intense background research, creative and be original.
    Some casual bloggers do gained sudden fame but that's rare now. Blogging causally is outdated, just like Space, Msn or icq. For me what's in is this mobile social networking world where a 5 or 70 years old can post news feed anytime through their mobile phone.
    As for working in full time job, can bet with u that 70% of the people do not like their current jobs.
    So just work in a job u do not like 30% and continue to write your blog.
    Good luck.

  15. My advice is to prioritize.
    You can have the job that will pay the bills (even though not loving it), just do it accordingly.
    As for me, I am thankful that I love my job.
    But here is my idea so that I could have my hobby and job going on at the sam time.
    After office hour, I cut down the time I used for TV watching or anything else, just spend at least 2 - 3 hours to do what I love.
    Hope the advice helps.

  16. I believe most of us blogs as part of our interest and why not do both, take it as part of your life experience while you can make some income too! WHY NOT?

  21. Hmmm seriously I always struggle with these issues too. But I know that although I do the job I hate, I still got income. With the income I need, I can do the things I like, I can buy the things I like. So I start to overcome the hatred, but feeling grateful to have a job that I can help sustain and provide daily needs I need in life. Eventually you will get a job you like in life =D The world is big enough for you to explore dear.

  23. I not sure what you are going thru right now, but don't give up. you will be better one day and do more than what you expect. For my advise, I would rather work for something I really Love rather than doing something I hate. According to my experience, work and LIFE definitely have to be balance. Without a work life balance, you life is meaningless. Fully utilize your spare time with what you love and stay happy and healthy.

  26. When u throw a question to the universe, the universe will respond to you. Our words send waves and vibration of energy to the universe and it will manifest itself and give you the answer. Look up on Access Consciousness. It's a good question you have right there, but u can change the way of the question and make it a choice. Remember, every choice u make creates ur future
