About This Quote

There is a lot of pressure on children to do well in school, especially when they are young. Often times they give up their dreams of playing a sport or pursuing a field of their interest. They put so much pressure on themselves that they end up doing nothing. We often think that the only way to get ahead is to study hard and work hard, but if we don’t love what we are doing then we will never be happy. If you want to succeed, you must love what you are doing.
