Turning Your Hobby Into Your Job and Your Job Into Your Hobby
John Grogan was a hard-working writer.
He rose up through the ranks of journalists, winning lots of awards and recognition. The pay wasn’t bad either–by journalist standards. But it certainly wasn’t enough to fund his real dreams–those aspirations that bubbled under the surface. The ones that his friends and families probably rolled their eyes when he mentioned. The ones that “didn’t pay.”
John wasn’t deterred, though.
John worked hard and wrote a tale about his attention-deficit dog, Marley. The book–Marley and Me–and the movie
based on the book became blockbusters and the financial freedom opened up new career paths for the writer, including his dream of becoming an editor of an organic gardening magazine.


Mondays stink.
