What I have pondered about advices is that they should be considered tools, not absolute commands. Just like any tool does not fit to every situation you still have it at hand if the need arises. Sometimes it might be good to push young one to something they do not necessarily passionately do but at least tried a bit, it is still better than doing nothing. The main goal is to make young have as much freedom as healthy and also use that freedom wisely so they can at least take care of themselves. When base is formed, they can build upon it however they see fit. I think overemphasizing passion or ambition is more like putting cart before the horse. When one gets the basics up, ambition and passion might come with it but trying primarily to seek ambition or passion might just be directing energy to wrong directions.
