What
Is Your Passion?
Seven Characteristics of
Unstoppable People
Part 2 in a Seven-Part Series
Based on the book Unstoppable by Cynthia Kersey
Why do you do
what you do? Is it
passion? Is it just because nothing else
came along?
One of the best definitions I
found for passion when researching this article is this: “a
strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object or concept.”
Passion is the fire that burns
deeply inside and fuels the emotions, creativity and will toward success.
Marshall Foch says this about
passion: “The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.”
Where passion burns, a way will
be found.
I want to write to encourage
and inspire others. I will write
books, articles, speeches, blogs and single sentence thoughts in pursuit of
this drive of mine.
Someday I will write the blog
heard round the world. I’m already being
read in some faraway places like Russia, Afghanistan, England, Saudi Arabia,
Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, Germany, India, Brazil, Indonesia and other such
places.
My passion is to offer hope,
encouragement and inspiration one word at a time to mankind.
Passion sometimes is scary. Robyn Allan says “many of us are afraid to follow our passions, to pursue what we want
most because it means taking risks and even facing failure. But to pursue your passion with all your
heart and soul is success in itself. The
greatest failure is to have never really tried.”
Passion sweeps one off their
feet. Now that is some strong
something.
When is the last time you were
swept off your feet?
So, what is your passion? You have to figure that one out for
yourself. Assessment tests, personality
profiles and other such tests can point you in a certain direction but to find
the perfect focus for your energies?
Look inside of you.
Where do your private thoughts
take you? When you are alone, what thoughts are on
your mind more than any other?
Look within to see what makes
your heart beat faster and discover the passion for your life.
