Do What You Luv and the Money Will Follow.

              Is it true that if you do what you love the money will eventually come? I'm still trying to figure that one out for myself. As a recent college grad in a struggling economy I cannot say that I am raking in the dough. However, I am doing what I love right out of school! How many people can say that? I recently started interning at a Social Media company and I absolutely love my job! I get to manage the account for one of our clients, which is a jewelry store. Essentially it is my duty to update their Facebook and Twitter accounts, research competitors' social media efforts, and measure our results. What more do I need?
            
               When people ask me what I do their answer is always, "That's so cool!" and as soon as I mention it is for no pay it quickly turns to "Oh, that sucks." Well yes, being poor is quite unfortunate but I'm learning that money isn't everything! Yes, I hope to make money someday (fingers crossed it's soon) but first and foremost I'd rather be doing something that I love. I am now well on my way to being able
to call myself a Social Media Specialist. I wouldn't be able to do this without putting in the time and without my true passion for what I do.
          
               Whoever said, "Do what you love and the money will follow" must have known what they were talking about. Or hey...what if the word money was symbolic and they simply meant you will SUCCEED? Hmm...that sounds pretty good too! Either way at the end of the day I'm doing what I want to be doing and that's worth more than any paycheck. Except when I want these cute shoes from Steve Madden. JK ;)
