Okay, I read it...

I have always wondered about that whole thing too, where various famous people say to "follow your dream" no matter what, and you will get there. Well, they did, but does that mean that everyone will? My father never quit following his dream, and it has led fairly much to a lifetime of business failures in his chosen field, and cost various other people a lot of time and money. In other words, he's been beating his head fruitlessly against a wall for about 80 years, seeking fame and fortune. I can think of other people I know who have done that too, and caused great grief to themselves and others in the process.

It's a puzzler. Are the famous people who give this gungho advice absolutely right...or are they just exceptional people in the first place, who were in the right place at the right time?

I don't know.

One thing though, I always have to admire people who have that kind of focused motivation...it's way better than having no motivation at all, that's for sure.
