I have no advice on how to find a professional field that you can fall in love with, as I pretty much fell in love with mine (mobile dev) on the first go (back in '09).
Just realize that being love with something doesn't mean it is always blissful. I love my partner to a deeper degree than I do with any other person (we have no kids), yet we do sometimes fight and don't get along.
It is the same with any job or profession. Realize this and I think you might become more content with what you do.
Outside of an professional setting I must say that after getting my self an espresso machine two years ago I've fallen in love with making and tweaking my shots.
- kzisme 5y agoMaybe off topic - but what kind of coffee setup do you have? :)
- MrDresden 5y agoI got my self a Sage Barista Express, which had good reviews as an entry level espresso machine with enough possibilities for tweaking as well as a built in canonical ceramic grinder capable of reaching espresso grinds. It has served me well, and I've only slightly adjusted the grind burrs. I have been looking into perhaps going for something a bit more advanced, and then a machine that has two boilers (the Sage has only one, and it can take a bit of time to make espresso for a whole dinner party). Apart from the machine I also got my self a propper tamper that fits well in my hand, a Acaia Lunar scale capable of 0.1 gr accuracy that also has different triggers for tracking flow time and then a couple of VST precision baskets (the sage ones were alright but I decided to try these out). Most important of it all though is the high quality coffee I get from my local roastery :)
