The statement " The only way to do great work is to love what you do" may imply that doing what you adore would help you.
If , let's say, you would do something you don't like , you couldn't have motivation to do it. Now, even if you actually do what you love, you should still consider that making a list of hard and maybe unachievable works may result in a " bad ending ", but ,maybe, with passion and luck you can go where you want. Life is a treasure and we should live it. Some examples of people who did what they wanted are: The famous Disney with his animation, Beethoven with his determination to perform, and others.
In fact, some definitions of Success say " to achieve a favourable result in a career you like", which can help you in life alot.
