Connie's\xa0motivational quote for today is by ~ Robert Ballard

\u201cFollowing your own passion \u2013 Not your parents\u2019, not your teachers\u2019 \u2013 YOURS.\u201d

Does this quote reflect how you have lived your life until now? Or throughout your life have you heard things like, \u201cDo well in school. Get\xa0good\xa0grades, so you can get into a\xa0good\xa0college. Then you have a good chance of getting a\xa0goodjob.\u201d Does this sound more familiar to you then the quote above, about living your passion?

The thing is, what we have heard throughout our life of doing \u201cgood,\u201d is just that \u201cgood.\u201d It\u2019s not great or awesome or mind blowing, it\u2019s just good. Good truly is the enemy of great, isn\u2019t it?
