How you do it will depend on all of the variables of humanity. Where you live, what your skills are, who your friends are, and how you approach getting your needs met will all be important in defining how you end up making your passion and your love your life's work.
Consider taking a look at your real needs (not those illusions that mainstream society brainwashed you to think were important) and put those on your top priorities list. Then work back from there.
Also, consider that whatever happens, really whatever happens while you are doing what you love and pursuing the things that are most valuable to you, you're automatically better off than you'd be if you were trapped in some job you can't stand or that's leading nowhere good.
Of course, having some kinds of plans is useful, but even if those plans don't work out as well as you imagine, you're still going to be better off making the choice to commit to living your life authentically, passionately, and joyously, right?
Peace, Love, and Bicycles
