The conversation was quite interesting.
Professor told about carrier and the reasons why you fail to have a great carrier. He suggests that you have a talk with him and say something and then he says why you are going to fail
The speaker spoke about why most people fail at having a great career and the importance of pursuing their passion. He makes the distinction between having for a job, a career, pursuing life’s passion, and the challenges that most people face at achieving success.
First of all, he said, you have to pursue the passion. It means that you must know, what is your passion.
First he stressed the importance of knowing and identifying what your passion is, and the motivation behind pursuing it.
Passion is not just interest. You may have 20 interests, but passion is beyond interests. You fail your carrier, because you don't have passion
Then he assume, that you find your passion, but you are going to fail, he said.
According to the lecturer, passion is more than having interest in something but it’s about pursuing something we love, a dream, and what fascinates you. He also indicated that people are often hindered even after finding their passion because of the fear of failure.
There are many excuses for it. And one of them, that people find that there are more important thing then carrier. It's human relationsheep. All of us want to be great friend, spouse and parent. And you select relationship he said. But then he ask, what do you say to your kid when he or she grow. And he explain, that we must be example for our kids.
Then. There are many other excuses. You are afraid to be ridiculous, afraid to fail and so on.
He continues that unfortunately many use excuses to discourage their pursuit of great career such as: how difficult the journey may be or having other priorities like relationships. Based on the speaker, putting relationships before passion is a very common excuse. The question posed was how can we be good examples to others when we are guilty of always postponing or denying our own passion because of insecurities and fear.
He concludes that you are going to fail. Unless.

The underlying message is that people are going to fail unless they go beyond their interest and excuses, pursue their passion, and not allow life challenges to scare them or settle for less.
