Mark Rober is a successful social media influencer who currently has over twenty three million subscribers on YouTube. However, this was not his first job. Rober grew up with a passion for engineering that would eventually lead to him getting a job for NASA in their Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He would work there for nine years and it would be there where he would begin making viral videos until 2013 when he would fully pursue his YouTube career. Rober was able to turn his childhood passion for engineering into not only a job working for NASA, but also a wildly successful and lucrative career making videos on YouTube. This just goes to show that even though most people think of work as something you do solely to make money, it does not always have to be that way. Rober has made millions by turning the thing he has loved for his entire life into a lucrative career, which most likely doesn’t even feel like work to him. This story also  shows that sometimes in business you have to take a leap of faith. Rober already had a very lucrative job at NASA, but he really wanted to pursue YouTube, so he decided to take that leap of faith and it has turned out to be a great decision.
