Balm for Mediocrity?

I don't know what to think of this article, "Do What You Love and You'll Starve."
"Based on the 2,700 clients I’ve worked with over the past two decades, the hundreds of callers to my career-centric radio show, and my countless other conversations with people about their careers, I’ve come to the conclusion that we’ve been sold a bill of goods when we’re told to “Follow your passion, “ or “Do what you love and the money will follow.” Fact is, if you do what you love, you’ll probably starve."

I dubiously believe the first paragraph applies to me: "If you are a star—very bright, talented, motivated, and personable and you have a passion, even if it’s in a competitive field, sure, go for it."

I'm a star...right?

Although it does make me reconsider going to law school.
