FOOD FOR THOUGHT

“I believe that you are put on this planet for a purpose. Part of discovering your purpose is discovering where your talents lie. Some people out of fear of failure don’t pursue that purpose.”

“If you find yourself embracing where your talent is, that ends up driving you. When you’re in it, you can’t help but be moved forward when you are truly pursuing what your purpose is.”

“If you are pursuing what you are called to do, that will push you and drive you. It’s the matter of navigating the obstacles of life that can make that pursuit difficult.”

1. Passion for whatever is you’re doing
2. Plan
