About This Quote

In the future, each of us must have the courage to follow our gift or to be engaged in a favorite occupation, even if it does not bring you any income at the moment. This is a wonderful way to look at the world. We are all given something unique that we are good at. If we do not pursue our gift, we are doing our gift a disservice.

A gift gives us strength and purpose. When we do not give it time to grow, we will lose our gift and become mediocre.
