If you do what you love, then you love what you do.
If you love what you do, you didn't necessarily get there by doing what you love.
Reminds me of: a duck is a bird but a bird isn't necessarily a duck.
I agree it's not the opposite.

While it is possible to both do what you love and love what you do, often if you do what you love you are apt to find out that you don't actually love doing it. Hence the common refrain that cautions against turning your love into a job.
That could also be the overjustification effect
