“I hate those people who say, ‘follow your heart.’” he says. “It’s never, ‘follow your mind.’ They’re so ignorant, they create a vacuum that I can’t stand next to.”
I laughed then, and I’m still laughing now. Oh, that Martin.
I can’t say I completely disagree with him, though. How do you expect to accomplish any of your goals if you keep forfeiting to your every whim? A lot of people I talk to seem to have it all together. When I hear them talk about their agendas and their aspirations for success, I just feel really small. I plotted out an agenda once, but that was only because I felt obligated to do so. It’s not a bad plan; I just wonder if it’s the right one for me. It’s all a matter of perspective, I guess. Too bad my perspective keeps changing. Prudence or passion…what’s a dreamer to choose? Damn it all…if only there were a way to have both.
