Larry Smith And Passion

I was lucky to have Larry Smith
as one of my professors.
I’ve never met a more passionate professor.
He was so passionate
that his classes were standing room only.
Students not enrolled in his economics classes
would sit in the audience,
simply to soak in his passion.

I doubt Larry Smith believes
he’s merely teaching economics.
Supply and demand
isn’t why fine art majors crash his classes.
He’s teaching about passion
because he KNOWS
only people with passion change the world.

As Larry Smith told Carmine Gallo
“Wasted talent is a waste
I cannot stand.
My students want to create technology.
I want them to create really ‘kick-ass’ technology.
I want them to be passionate
about what they’re doing.”

Be passionate!
