And if you were really lucky, you grew up and actually figured out how to earn a living doing your dream job.

“If you do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” - Marc Anthony

Chances are, you’ve heard this adage or some variation on it.  Maybe it was a career counselor, a coach, or even your grandpa who told you that if you make your living doing something you enjoy, it won’t feel like work.
