Everyone says you should follow your passion. But “What is Passion?” Following your passion will help you achieve both success and happiness in life.
But no one says how to find your passion. If this is your problem, then this discussion is for you. Stay with the discussion until the very end.
If you are told to take the mobile phone from inside the house, you need to know what a mobile phone is. Similarly, you need to know about passion first.
If you don’t know how passion works, you won’t find your passion. Unfortunately, most of us don’t know the definition of passion.
As a result, it becomes difficult to find one’s passion. Many people can’t understand even when it’s right in front of their eyes.
So, first you need to know what passion is? Passion is that work which is meaningful to you, not just for personal gain. That work is great and sacred to you.
For example: Anthony and Smith are two friends. Anthony had acquired education in information technology only in the hope of getting a job in a good company.
He hopes to earn a lot of dollars by doing the job. But Smith studied information technology because he loved this subject very much.
He is very excited and happy while studying it. He wants to use information technology so that people can make their lives easier.
He is doing this for the welfare of the rich and the poor.
Anthony’s purpose is to enjoy the results of acquiring education in information technology. He is more attracted to the results than the work. But Smith loves his work.
He thinks about the overall welfare rather than personal success. So, for Smith, education in information technology is a passion. On the other hand, for Anthony, it is just a burden.
Passion is that thing which inspires you, encourages you and helps you to improve more. I hope you have got an idea about passion.
Now let’s see how to find passion.Now let me ask you some questions. You can write the answers to your questions in a notebook.
If you can’t find the answer to any question, write, “Nothing”. Let’s see.How would you spend your time and money if you had plenty of both?
After your death, for what work would you want to be remembered by people?Our world is full of challenges and problems.
If you were given the magical power to solve only one problem, which problem would you solve? Who do you consider your idol?
If I could build a life like theirs, would I consider myself successful?Now I am giving my answers.
Let’s verify our answers. The answer to the first question is, I would look for the easiest ways to solve the problems of my life.
The answer to the second question is, if there is a positive change in people’s lives through my words or actions, and they remember me for life, then I will be happy.
The answer to the third question is, I would change the wrong ideas of those people who do not improve their lives due to wrong ideas, by giving them the right ideas.
The answer to the last question is, my idol is my mother. I want to live by holding to my mother’s ideals.If the answer to 2 or more of these 4 questions is “Nothing”, then you have to understand that you have not met with passion.
Meet first, then identify. In this case, you have to adopt a new method. You have to set a goal to do something new every month.
This could be photography, painting, writing poetry, etc. Is it mandatory to have a passion to improve in life? This question may arise in the minds of many.
If someone thinks that earning a lot of dollars is the only goal in life, then it is better for them not to look for passion. But if you want to improve in life, that means contentment, peace, respect, welfare of society, etc., then you must follow passion.
Allow me to tell you a funny story. Robert works at a company with a salary of $2000 per month. But he is not very interested in that job. While he is in the office, it feels like someone has held him captive.
If he works with such a mentality, nothing will be left in his life. He has decided that he will endure mental torture for 6 days a week and enjoy one day, having fun with friends.
In other words, he is enduring torture for 6 days for the enjoyment of 1 day. But his friend Sam does a job that he is very interested in. He loves doing that job very much.
He doesn’t notice when the work is over. But his monthly income is only $900. But if he continues to work with mental satisfaction, it will not take him long to surpass Robert’s income.
Top 4 Proven Ways to Overcome Laziness and Take Back Control of Your Life
Sam has chosen a lifestyle where he can enjoy life not just one day a week, but 7 days a week. Because, for him, this work is not a burden but an emotion.
In fact, passion is not an external thing now. You just have to be patient and try something new. When you find your passion, your mind will automatically know.
Then you just have to ask yourself those 4 questions to be sure.The famous scientist Einstein said, “I have no talent, but I am passionately curious.”
