The 5 things @ericbahn recommends you include in a teaser deck:

Does @ericbahn believe in "following your passion?"

Yes, people should do things they are passionate about!

But not every passion needs to or should be something you turn into a business.

It can be a hobby or something you do for fun because it's... your passion!
