the pull of your change pocket

I'm stuck. Stuck between the amount of money I want (read: need) to bring home and what I'd like to do for a living.

So I've begun the perennial search for any New one of the following-

1) job/office

2) degree

3) income source

4) winning lotto number(s)

There's a raging mental tug-of-war between my ears to MAKE LOTS OF MONEY and FOLLOW YOUR HEART and while I believe both are doable, there's nothing tugging on me in the short-term.

Because I can't focus on one ... digging in and setting up shop on whatever path I choose ... I'm conflicted by the options of them all. Too many decisions to make that one isn't made at all.

I have no children and no one else whose life or credit I would damage by going out on a limb. My mortgage looms large but - in this world of bailouts and concessions to multi-million dollar industries - who is going to hold it against me?

What to do ... ?
