”Find something you’re passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it.”
Julia Child
Great advice from the great Julia Child. I came across this quote today and having watched Julie and Julia a while back, I have a new respect and admiration for her. She wasn’t afraid to go after her dreams and she wasn’t afraid of failure either. Failure or the fear of failure hold so many of us back, I know it has for me. I am very passionate about a lot of things in life and it was fitting to come across this quote today. The hubby and I were just talking about some things today and he said to try to do something every day that would relate to my goals and dreams…whether it’s research or physically doing something. I often feel like my days are kind of wasted because I’m not where I want to be career wise. But if I constantly do something every day, it won’t feel like my time is wasted. Such wise words from both Julia Child and my hubby.
