19. "First understand that they won't take your word as gospel." In response to In response to 0 Fri Jun-05-15 02:05 PM by daryloneal
Young people are smart and hardheaded, which is appropriate.
And if they do take your word as gospel, they deserve whatever bad advice you give them so that they can learn from it and do what they should have done in the first place: Find their own way.
People need to make decisions that are the best fit for their situation and what matters most to them.
If you're ALL about the cash, you're likely willing to do nearly whatever as long as it brings you that.
If you're ALL about the passion, you're likely to be willing to sacrifice within reason to chase that.
If you're a mix of both, your path will be a mix of both.
Listen to yourself. That's the advice. If you succeed, keep going. If you fail, learn from it, and keep going.
No one that isn't walking on your journey every day can advise you on what's best for you.
