I think you should work for the process, the outcome will figure itself out. But yes, you must trust the process. By focusing on it you can build a stack of proof by small outcomes or wins along the way.
This is a great question / paradox to think about. I think many of us feel bad that we aren't doing what we necessarily are called or love to do...I mean, I had my whole life planned out as a kid..I was going to play professional basketball.
Well, I am certainly not doing that now 😂
So, I have sided more with your #2 option in that I look at my occupation as providing for my family, and that's okay...it's okay because I can pursue what I love outside of work (it doesn't HAVE to be one and the same).
If Rob Lowe shows up and offers to buy your beloved local access TV show, don't sell
More to the point: "All we see is the result, not what it took to get there. It emphasizes the outcome, not the process."
And so to keep going requires building a sort of confidence to keep trusting the process, as well.

Completely agree, it doesn’t have to be your whole life. Your 9-5 can support your passion.
