About This Quote

Persevering through something that is drudgery to you in the name of perseverance alone isn't commendable; it's senseless stubbornness. Even if you stick with it long enough to make good money, you won't be truly happy. Anyone who sticks with something long enough to make good money will find that their passion has been replaced by the desire for money. They may continue to keep working because they can't imagine giving up what they once loved. However, this is not the way that people should be pursuing their passions or working toward their goals; this is simply an act of desperation.
