Jobrani shared a story about his mother's reaction when he told her he wanted to be a comedian. She suggested he become a lawyer instead, and when he refused, she said, 'At least become a mechanic.' When he asked how she went from lawyer to mechanic, she replied, 'People need a mechanic. Nobody needs a comedian.' Jobrani realized she didn't understand his passion — she simply loved him and wanted him to have a secure future. But the lesson he drew was that parents, however well-meaning, don't know what will fulfill you. Only you do. And while following your passion is risky, it is ultimately the path to a genuinely good life.
