A lot of people don’t do well simply because they major in minor things.

About This Quote

A lot of people don’t do well simply because they major in minor things. People with a great interest can focus on that passion, but if they are not interested in learning about it, how will their minor skill ever be used? It is better to have a hobby or passion that you are interested in than to have a hobby or passion you are forced to learn about.
