This is why "follow you passion" is terrible career advise. If you make your passion your work then it stops being your "passion".
Much better career advise I've heard is: What kind you shit are you much better at suffering than other people around you seem to be?
Because work is work. There's a reason you get paid to do it. Sure it might be something that you are good at and care about, but if you need to work on it 8 hours a day, then you will inevitably start to feel the grind. This is why you get paid and go on vacations.
