Many of you are familiar with Mike Rowe of Discovery show Dirty Jobs. These days, he’s promoting a new show he’s created, and spending a lot of time responding to fan mail via Facebook posts. About a year ago, Rowe gave a TED talk, in which he stated that the worst advice he had ever been given was to follow your passion.
He recently doubled down on that statement when he responded to a fan on Facebook who disagreed with him. Give Rowe this—he’s very eloquent in his response, but also very wrong.
