PASSION..


what is a
PASSION?

I like to define a passion as something u love to do. Something you love so much that you will do it even if you don't get paid to do it.
 How does that relate to money? 
And what is a PASSION INCOME?
A passion income is therefore an income you make doing what you love. A passion can be job, a business, an activity or an indulgence that you find meaningful, that you can relate to.. something that you enjoy and that you can't wait to do. It is your purpose in life.. it is what you classify as fun. It is what you are made for.. When your income is a passion income, you wake in the morning.. every morning and you can't wait to go to work. You whistle your way through the day simply because what you do is no longer work.
Why do we need to find our PASSION and embark on it?
Because.. let me ask here.. how many life do you have? If you say one (and you should right) then shouldn't you want spend the rest of your life doing what you really love to do? Discovering your passion is finding your key to happiness and success in life. What you are passionate about, you will do with enthusiasm and energy, which you will excel in, and that will lead to great success..When you do what you love to do, invariably you will do it better and more successfully. Why?? Because passion sells. Passion gets you noticed.Passion adds meaning to your life. Look at Oprah, Bill Gates, countless other whose passion has gripped the world.People who love what they're doing so much that even if they put their life on cruise control, they will never take their foot off the accelerator.
Your end goal should be your passion. Money should not be the end goal. However money could be the means to help you achieve your passion. It provides you with the time and the ability to do what you want to do.However if you make money without know what your real passion is then you can still be very rich but possibly still unhappy.However having said that, there are many who goes to work every day wishing that they can do same thing else. Most merely wishes but never are able to get out of their comfort zone. As work occupies a significant part of our life..working without passion would be like having a dispassionate life. That if you think about it, is really sad. Sorry have to say this. To be willing to compromise on our life and to accept the idea that you spent 8 hours doing something that you don't really want to do and that you find little sense in it, is TRAGIC.
Why does that happen? The main reason is simply because we are brought up by our education system and by our society to accept that. The other reason is because a large portion of people don't know what their passion is. They don't really know what they want.

"Most people don't get what they want in life because they don't know what they want.."

So in conclusion, to add meaning and purpose to financial success we must end up doing what we really love to do and what to do.
