Passion

Are you living your life with passion?

 

“The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, and passion.”

Nadia Boulanger

 

What is ‘Passion’?

– An intense desire or enthusiasm for something. (Oxford Dictionaries)

 

Passion can be a drive when it’s in relation with a dream. As long as you take action using that drive, it can help you reach your dream.

 

First, you need a dream.

 

Do you have a dream?

 

If you don’t know where you’re going, how can you reach where you want to go?

 

If your dream doesn’t bring passion within you, then you should find a dream that is closer to your heart.

 

“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”

Harriet Tubman

 

Passion

Passion is the gasoline that will make your engine run.

 

When you do something with passion, you do it with a little something special that makes your actions better.

 

“The saddest people I’ve ever met in life are the ones who don’t care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satisfaction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary, because there’s nothing to make it last.”
Nicholas Sparks

 

Passion is one of the key to happiness.

 

When you have passion for what you do, you can’t play small. You want to play as big as your dream let you create it.

 

“There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”

Nelson Mandela

 

When you get up with a smile.

When you are happy to work.

When you are motivated to do a little more at the end of the day.

That’s when you can guess you’re on the right path.

Sell out

sellout

We need to find a way to make a living.

 

Doing so, we end up selling our time.

 

Most of us will work at any jobs just to earn more.

 

We choose a job in relation with what we want to earn.

 

“Don’t let making a living prevent you from making a life.”

John Wooden

Find what you like.

 

Find a way to do what you like and earn a living doing it.

 

You could end up struggling to earn with what you like.

 

You’ll see that it’s worth it in the end.

 

You can also find something you like in your present job and do your best to focus on that. Become the best with it and earn a living doing it. Without the need to change your job.

Small step

Everything takes time to build.

 

Every trip start with one step.

 

“A jug fills drop by drop.”

Buddha

How to realize your goals:

  • Choose what you want.
  • Write it down on paper.
  • Take action with what feels good. Take the first step.
  • Be consistent. Keep going on.

 

Many things can be said on how to achieve your goal, but if you keep it short those 4 steps are the basic.

 

“The journey of a thousand leagues begins with a single step. So we must never neglect any work of peace within our reach, however small.”

Adlai E. Stevenson

Action in the right direction is all you need to get closer to your goal.

 

Remember, you need to know where you want to go before you take actions. How can you hit the target if you don’t look in the direction of the target?

Overcome helpless

overcomehelpless

Feeling helpless is very bad. What can you do to overcome it?

 

First, we must understand that it’s not a dead end. It’s a feeling and you can change it.

 

There’s no automatic way to change that feeling. You’ll have to choose to work on it and take action to do so.

 

“We are all ordinary. We are all boring. We are all spectacular. We are all shy. We are all bold. We are all heroes. We are all helpless. It just depends on the day.”

Brad Meltzer

You have what you need to change that feeling of helplessness. Don’t wait for someone else to do it for you. They can’t.

 

Most people don’t want to talk about helplessness.

 

It’s there in the heart of a lot of people. Denying it will not resolve that situation.

 

We all felt that feeling. No one is immune to it.

 

Let’s face reality and do our best to help those who are stuck in it.

Happy job

happyjob

Find something that you like in your job.

 

The more things you like with your job, the more you’ll like your job. This may seems complicated, but if you can find something to like with you job, your job will be a lot easier.

 

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”

Albert Schweitzer

 

So, if you want to be successful in your job, you need to like something about what you do.

 

Too many people want to do only what they like. They focus on one or two things and just want to do that. It’s an impossible dream.

 

Yes you could end up doing something you really like, but there’s always a little something in it that you don’t. If you can find the will to do what you don’t like, it will become a drive into becoming the best in that fields.

Confidence

confidence

Confidence is build. Usually with a lot of mistake and hard work.

 

To build your confidence, you’ll have to face your fear and take action. You know what needs to be done.

 

“Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.”

Norman Vincent Peale

 

You’ll make mistakes, we all do. It’s what you do next that matters.

 

After a mistake, adjust and keep going on.

 

“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”

Dale Carnegie

Do good

dogood

Doing ‘Good things’ brings good things in your life.

 

You are the master of your action. As so, you’re the master of what shall come to you.

 

“Doing Good is a simple and universal vision. A vision to which each and every one of us can connect and contribute to its realization. A vision based on the belief that by doing good deeds, positive thinking and affirmative choice of words, feelings and actions, we can enhance goodness in the world.”

Shari Arison

If you influence the world, you influence your life.

 

It all start with your life. Be good with yourself.

 

“I’ve really come to realize you have to love yourself before you can expect someone else to.”

Leah Remini

How can you love someone else if you can’t love yourself?

Action taker

Nothing great is accomplish without taking action.

 

Be among the doers.

 

“A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”

George Bernard Shaw

 

There’s too many lookers in this world. Too many people waiting for someone else to do what they should have done.

 

If you expect someone else to do it for you, you’ll never get what you really want.

 

“It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project.”

Napoleon Hill

 

Wake up! Take charge of your success!

Know yourself. Grow into what you dream and act upon.

 

“Do you want to know who you are? Don’t ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
Thomas Jefferson

 

Your actions will determined your legacy. You legacy is always about what you did. Be a doers and leave your mark.

 

“A leader should demonstrate his thoughts and opinions through his actions, not through his words.”
Jack Weatherford

 

History never remember the followers, it remembers the leaders. Leaders take action and move on.

 

If you take action and move on, you have better chances to become a leader.

 

“A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.”
Douglas MacArthur

 

Most leader don’t intent on becoming one at the beginning. They become because they took actions and inspire others with it.

 

Do your best every day. Do better the next day. And keep going on.

 

Be nice with others that you can help. Be someone they can come up to and find great answers. Don’t expect a return and you’ll get one.
