I'm sure you will do great on it, your mother is right, sometimes you know more than you think!!

I think it is good you are doing something you love...you may be naturally good at the other subject but where is the excitement and passion? Plus would you really want to be doing the other subject until you retire?

That is what I try and think when I think I should do something I KNOW I'm good at it but don't love...imagine having to do it for the next 50+ years.
