Hey, it's Arvid and this is the Bootstrap Founder.

A while ago, I asked my Twitter friends to tell me what the most annoying and most infuriating piece of entrepreneurial advice is that they ever received.
podcast-host
And overwhelmingly, follow your passion stood out as one of the most frustrated items there that people just mentioned most of the time.
podcast-host
And I've seen this particular piece of advice being given a lot by people who have made it.
podcast-host
With specifically people, founders who have had exits, successful entrepreneurs who found success in the field that they're passionate about.
podcast-host
And I may have, to be perfectly honest here, from time to time hinted at the fact that this might not be too bad.
podcast-host
Bad if followed carefully as well.
podcast-host
But today I want to dive into why I think this is actually nefarious and dangerous advice when followed blindly.
podcast-host
And more importantly, what it should and can be decoded into that's actually meaningful and helpful for you as a founder.
podcast-host
And before we get to that, a word from our sponsor, paddle.com.
podcast-host
I'm using Paddle as my own merchant of record for all my software projects, and they take care of all the taxes, currencies, they track decline transactions, they update credit cards so that I can focus on dealing with my competitors and not with banks or financial regulators.
podcast-host
If you would rather just build your product instead of dealing with all these weird financials, check out paddle.com.
podcast-host
as your merchant of record.
podcast-host
Now, right off the bat, this follow your passion advice, it's such an ambiguous term.
podcast-host
What does it actually mean?
