Everyday we have to make difficult decisions in our lives. Our minds tell us to do one thing, but our hearts tell us to do something else.
When people tell you to follow your heart, they are not talking about the heart that moves blood in your body. To follow your heart means to do what makes you feel happy!
Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple, thinks it is important to listen to yourself and to follow your heart. He started his own business in his parents’ garage, and now his technology is in homes all over the world! He didn’t let anyone stop him.
