Answer:

Yes, I agree with Larry Smith. Here are some of the statements that resonate well with me:

Smith explains that it is important for one to love the job they are doing. This is corroborated by John Ruskin who said: "<em>when love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.</em>"

 

Smith also makes another point to say that it is incorrect for one to be happy for only 28% of their career. That is 2 out of 7 days. He makes the illustration that 5 days a week, one must go to work. If one does not like that job, they'd always look forward to the weekend. I am an advocate for happing a happy life. If one is only happy for 2 out of 7 days a week, then they are not really happy. It's a sad way to live one's life; just to pay bills.

On the other hand,            

There are many people who have tasted poverty. Who know the unhappiness that not having enough brings. There are people never dreamt they'd become anything in life until they found the jobs they now have. For that category of people, their passion is being able to meet their need and live a life void of lack and poverty. So to ask someone in that category to go look for their passion may be anti-productive.

I'll also make reference to his last statement about luck. Smith says he doesn't wish people luck. I don't agree that life is completely without positive co-incidence. Not that it is wise to depend entirely on it.

As the saying goes "Luck favours the prepared."

If one works hard enough, the chances tend to tilt in their favour.

Cheers
