About This Quote

The meaning of this quote is that if you want to go a different way, you must first overcome the obstacle. If you want a different job, you must first find one that will suit you. If you want to go to the opposite direction than the rest of your friends, you must first convince your friends to follow you. People who are happy with what they have are called “lazy” or “stupid,” yet it is this type of people who are deemed successful in life. It is those who go against the grain who are successful in life.
