Don’t set your own goals by what other people make important.

About This Quote

If you set your goals by what other people think is important, you will probably end up with a life that is no good at all. The same goes for the things that other people say are important. If you want to be a great artist, don’t listen to others when they say that you need to be a great athlete or a great writer. Instead, find out what you really love doing and then do it. That will lead to your happiness and success.
