As Long As You Learn Something

"Stacy’s story made me wonder why most of us never discover that one passion that is so powerful and consuming, that it can drive us past any obstacle.  What stands in the way of our finding the one thing we love to do? “I think it’s the fear of failing and the fear of not fitting in,” Stacy says. “We want to be like everyone else, and we get so tied to things being a certain way. But when you’re concerned about fitting in, you really narrow your options in life. I always tell my kids, if you’re interested in something, try it. Even if you end up deciding it’s not for you, it doesn’t matter as long as you learn something.”"
