When I was an undergrad in the middle of the Material Girl <\/em>80s, I don\u2019t remember anyone\u2014a professor, a parent, or even a random guy on the street (or in the career counseling center)\u2014ever telling me to \u201cdo what I love and the money will follow.\u201d And while author Marsha Sinetar released her book with the same title in 1989, the year I graduated from college, it never showed up as a graduation gift.<\/p>\n

Instead, I heard \u201cGet a job.\u201d (And: \u201cYou\u2019ve only got six months before you start paying off that student loan.\u201d)<\/p>\n

I was encouraged by many, of course, to find work that I would enjoy, that would maximize my skills and my creativity. I was raised to believe money didn\u2019t matter all that much. But I wasn\u2019t told to \u201cfind your passion\u201d and, if I was, I\u2019m not sure I could have found it\u2026even if you\u2019d given me a glass of wine and a life coach.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s possible this is a Midwest sentiment. I grew up in the heartland, raised by first-generation Americans. We\u2019re known to be relentlessly practical (and polite). And, it\u2019s possible, I was told this and no longer remember because I didn\u2019t take it seriously.<\/p>\n

This may seem odd to my creative writing students and people who know me well, because I am a person who is passionate about many things, especially reading literature and trying to write it. My mother says I began reading at 3 and even if she\u2019s exaggerating, my favorite childhood memories are summer days in the hammock with my library books. When I wasn\u2019t reading, I was writing or, at least, watching the world as a writer does, observing and analyzing while trying to make meaning out of it all. Not much has changed in 40-some years. But still it seems odd to call it my \u201cpassion;\u201d it\u2019s simply who I am as a person. The act of writing rarely feels like an act of passion. It just feels hard.<\/p>\n

After graduation, I spent the next 15 years writing for various advertising and marketing companies. I wasn\u2019t passionate about these positions, necessarily, but there were projects I became passionate about. At night, I still read and I wrote what I wanted to write, not what I was paid to do. I joined writing groups and book clubs; I went to workshops and readings. I published a few things. I even got paid a few times. I\u2019m mathematically challenged, but if I had to guess I\u2019d say I average about .0002 cents an hour for my creative work (and that\u2019s probably a high estimate).<\/p>\n

I suppose to many that doesn\u2019t feel like success or, at least, it certainly doesn\u2019t seem to correlate with the notion that \u201cthe money will follow.\u201d The money, for my \u201cpassion,\u201d hasn\u2019t even limped behind me. And while I\u2019m happy it worked out for Walt Disney and Steve Jobs, I lose zero sleep over my own \u201cpassion\u201d income.<\/p>\n

When I started the MFA program in creative writing in my late 30s, I looked at it as a gift I gave myself. For years, I felt as if I wasn\u2019t improving artistically on my own. I get weary when people say \u201cwriting can\u2019t be taught.\u201d Of course, it can. It\u2019s the equivalent of saying trumpet players are born that way. My professors helped me shape my work in immeasurable ways. I\u2019m forever grateful.<\/p>\n

While I was there, I taught as a graduate teaching assistant and found I loved teaching. After I graduated, I was fortunate enough to be hired. I tell everyone\u2014often\u2014how much I love my job. I work hard to do my job well and to keep growing as an educator. I feel like it was something I was born to do, but I\u2019m still not sure I would call it \u201cfollowing my passion.\u201d I am passionate about my students. I am passionate about the work we read and the work they write. I am passionate about the service-learning work they engage in. When I stop being passionate about these things, I\u2019ll find something else to do. But even though the term \u201cpassion\u201d remains problematic for me, I suppose I reserve it for my own creative work\u2026which still hasn\u2019t produced any real income despite a growing list of publications.<\/p>\n

My students often ask me how to make a living as a writer of literature. I know very few people who do, so I send the students to speak with visiting authors and others in our department. I tell them about jobs they can get as students with degrees in the humanities. I\u2019m convinced studying the arts\u2014and trying to create your own art\u2014makes you a better person, one this world desperately needs. I\u2019m hugely proud of them and their willingness to pursue this path.<\/p>\n

But I worry about this rhetoric we seem to collectively agree on, one that assumes everyone has a \u201cpassion\u201d that\u2019s full of power and just waiting to be unearthed and used for financial gain. Some people do; some people may not. But I believe everyone has a purpose, and everyone can find activities that fulfill them. And, sure, those activities can absolutely lead to jobs, but they don\u2019t have to.<\/p>\n

If you do what you love\u2014or what you like or what you find important or useful for yourself or for the causes you believe in\u2014it\u2019s possible \u201cthe money will follow.\u201d But it\u2019s also possible, it won\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Do it anyway.<\/p>\n
