There has always been an eternal argument over the issue of whether one should opt for employment that fetches them financial benefits, even if they are forced to forgo their favorite occupation. Some accept it, others reject it. 


A common perception seems to be emerging that one should opt for something professionally that precipitates into financial benefits even if it means abandoning favorite trade. This statement needs a profound analysis.  


Even though most would lobby for embracing a profession that complements natural inclination, the reality is far from rosy: it is the money that drives life, by helping meet basic necessities such as food, shelter and clothing; and also the advanced needs like education and healthcare. Thus, the irony is that one must yield to the current demands of self and family, so that life can be led comfortably and without  chaos; plan well for the future; and also enjoy professional and social influence. 


Even the top brass of reputed organizations admit abandoning their craving to engage in an occupation they were extremely fond of: Mr. Rakesh Punj, VP, Punj Lllyod, wanted to be a wildlife photographer, but his obligations towards his family led to him to seek employment to fetch him financial success and a medium to support his kin; consequently, he joined a steel mill and gained immensely, earning respect in familial and social paradigm.  


However, some favor following innate desires. Their opinion is founded on precedents of a few fortunate, like Sachin Tendulkar and Lionel Messi, who chased their dreams, and obtained triumph and riches. This section suggests that pursuing dreams enables one to learn effortlessly; gain perfection; earn enduring success; and outperform others, grossing riches and fame, as a result. Unfortunately, barring a few, for a majority such success remains elusive.    


Overall, although yearning to espouse occupations matching intuitive disposition seems attractive, the paradox is that most cannot exercise this option due to their compulsion to make their ends meet, and thus, should join jobs to seek financial returns.
