You just have to find that thing that’s special about you that distinguishes you from all the others
and through true talent, hard work, and passion, anything can happen.  -Dr. Dre

I came across a blog this week on CareerShifters.com, about a British public servant who left his job to (successfully) pursue a career in photography.

I'm sharing it here, as I was inspired by his success.

People sometimes ask me if I'm aiming to grow my business into a full-time job that will allow me to quit my 9-to-5.  The honest answer is: I'm not sure yet.

I'm still at the very early stages, and for now, building is its own reward.  Ask me again in a year or two!

I enjoy following the CareerShifters' newsletters, as they take a different approach to changing careers than other traditional job advice websites.  There's a real emphasis on discovering your passion, more so than leveraging your existing skills.

If you've ever wondered "what if...?" but found yourself also thinking "I have no idea..." I recommend taking a peek. 

Maybe you'll find the inspiration you need to take a new step!
