Do you know any/the kind of jobs which are suitable or okay for someone who has a passion in dancing?

I am basically doing a job in telesales but I couldn't even do the job with any real dedication or make any sales for two main reasons:

1. It is against my own ethics of helping people, and not manipulate/persuade them.

2. When I was on the job, I didn't feel like doing it and I can only imagine dancing and the words inside me were "I'd rather be dancing."

The degree I have is not even related in dancing and I had to keep it a secret due to that against family's upbringing.
I try to do my best by myself in dancing such as practicing what I can learn from some books, reading dance magazines, and the dance vocal group that inspired me wanting to dance in the first place.

Someone told me to ignore it but I can't because dancing is something that is in my heart.

At first, I thought I would be okay as I am...but I also feel that this job as a telesales is not okay for a person who has a passion/ heart in dance.
In my own honest words, like it's not aligned.

I'm thinking that maybe there are jobs that,
even though they are not about dancing, they would make a person with such a heart feels okay.
I started to think that I wouldn't mind if the pay isn't high either.

There are many of you guys here...thought you could help if you know any information/experience.

I think it's fantastic that you have a passion for dancing. Once that passion is inside you, it's all consuming & the only thing you can think about. Why not try to pursue your passion while continuing to work? Then at least you're still making an income & pursuing something you love. Once you find a job where dancing is the focal point, then you can let go of your telesales job. The big hurdle though is convincing your family that you want to pursue a career in dance.

Thank you so much...I mean nobody ever told me that is fantastic that I have a passion for dancing.

Yes, that is a good idea but my heart feels...not this work...the kind of work where I might not even be able to do well to earn enough to pay for my living, and have to move back to my hometown because of it.

@Keinaf: Unfortunately, you do need to consider a living to pay for basic necessities. I think when people have a certain passion for something, they should pursue it. Money isn't the most important thing in the world. As long as you have enough to support yourself and you love what you're doing, then that's all that matters.

That's what I always thought, but survival is in question if can't make money to pay for the basic needs.
