This is true in every experience I've had. Turning your hobbies into your job will often make you hate your hobbies or you'll go home not wanting to do that thing ever again.
HOWEVER
What turning your hobby into your job does is create a path of least resistance for you because you inherently have a lot of background and experience in that niche and it can lead to a lot of potential success. The side effect is that you no-longer do that thing for fun anymore but that's okay, you can always find more hobbies and new things to interest you.
