What do you do if your boss's expectations are unrealistic?
If this is your first open and honest conversation with your boss you are at an extreme disadvantage. One of the key skills of anyone who is an employee in a bureaucracy is to manage up and across the org chart. In order to do this you must meet with your boss at regular intervals outside of times of crisis simply to stay on the same page. I recommend these meetings no less than once a month and research shows that you will only be able to engender Trust and be in a position of influence when you've had five of these positive meetings in a row. So if you're starting now with your first constructive open dialogue with your boss, you missed a boat a long time ago and will need to work through several of these meetings to get back to scratch.

What do you do if your boss's expectations are unrealistic?
If you don't feel the boss's expectations can be met in your current circumstances - and you are not being put in a dangerous position by those expectations - a generous minded person might begin with: Sit down and make a list of the additional resources and support you would need in order to hit these goals - the complete list. And then- assuming you actually have a relationship with your boss which is a set of skills and an action plan that is in addition to and in parallel to your current job description - ask for what you need. Notice very carefully how your boss responds. If you get "are you kidding, what's your problem, don't have what it takes?" get out of there.

What do you do if your boss's expectations are unrealistic?
In healthcare as a physician burnout coach, I often see psychopath bosses who actually put my physician clients in danger by their work site requirements. If that is true for you, walk away -- get the heck out of there protect yourself and do not be the front line tool that implements their corrupt policies. This is a great time to find a new job and new virtual options mean you don't necessarily have to move yourself and your family to get one.

How can you make your passion profitable as an entrepreneur?
Who are the people you want to serve? What is the issue you want to help them address? (the problem you want to help them solve?) Why/How are you qualified to help this person with this issue? NOW _ Imagine you are successful. Your days are filled with helping these people address this issue. How does that feel? If you are stoked by that thought experiment ... you are on track. Then the decision is whether you want to do this for fun or attempt to build it into a right livelihood?
