I love how you emphasise on the gradual merging of your two paths. I imagine when people make extreme takes, a lot of their ideas (whether consciously or not) are mutated by audience capture incentives (how do I get attention? vs how do I tell the truth?)
And because we are all guzzling on the firehose of the internet, our ideas and perspectives offline are clothed by these creators, whether we choose to or not
I found some passion in a career that made decent money. But it isn't my only source of joy either. I like the idea of passion in parallel with production.
Your post raises a compelling point about balancing passions with financial needs. I'd be interested in what concrete tactics have you found effective in pursuing both without feeling overwhelmed or compromising too much on either front?
