If you are a student in the science or arts department, whether you take classes in biology or chemistry, history or economics, sociology or psychology, your primary goal is to meet your course requirements and graduate.

If you are in the science department and you decide to take all your classes in the art department (which is very unlikely), you may pass all of them and still not graduate, because you will not have met the basic requirement for your primary course of study. You will definitely be happy during your time in school, but upon graduation, you will be disappointed when you realise the consequences of your decision. 

Life is a journey of purpose, and your journey is like a school. At the end of your journey, you will be graded based on your God-given purpose. If you fall short of all that was required of you, then you have failed. Always remember your primary purpose in life. In life, if your purpose does not determine your decisions and actions, you are only deceiving yourself. The reality will dawn on you at the time of your expected reward.
