Have you ever experienced a strong desire or devotion towards something? Something that you are willing to trade your time, money and energy to experience. This expression of emotion may be defined as Passion. People of all walks of life have experienced this feeling and some have credit it to their accomplishments.
“Without passion, you have no energy, without energy, you have nothing” Warren Buffet.
Connecting to your passion requires your involvement in activities that you are interested in. Passion begins with a deep-rooted conviction, that conviction then leads to a desire, which then connects to a strong emotional reaction. When passion is born, it often leads you down a path towards purpose. Since the beginning of civilization, we have seen men and women who have done extraordinary things to make our world much better, from inventions to advocating for equal rights among all, they all have recognized that their passion is what contributed to their success.
There are many ways to assess if you are passionate about something. However, I would like to share a few questions that you can to ask yourself to assess whether you are passionate about something:
· Do I feel connected and want to experience more?
· Do I lose track of time when involved in an activity?
· Do I get back on track quickly after a detour?
· Do people compliment me on how well I performed?
Passion speaks from the heart, if you are willing to listen, it will lead you to discover all that you were created to be.
