- What exactly is a ‘life passion,’ you ask?
- Passion: an “intense, driving, or overmastering feeling of conviction.”That might be the dictionary definition, but in reality, it’s hard to define “passion” because it’s a feeling that no words can describe.The history of the word passion gives it a deeper meaning that makes anyone who has found their passion smile and nod, like it’s a secret acknowledgement of what it truly means to live for something.
- The word passion comes from the Latin word passio, which means “suffering.” Yes! People certainly suffer for their passions! Some suffer a great deal, and that’s part of the reason why finding your passion (and following it) is so important in life. After all, anything worthwhile has some pain attached to it.But the pain and suffering that may stem from a passion is nothing compared with the stress and emptiness caused by a passionless life. Without that creative release, life can become unfulfilling and pointless.
- Following your passion is something that “outsiders” (i.e. parents, siblings, partners, friends, and others) can’t seem to comprehend. Outsiders tend to focus their criticisms on things like safety, stability, security, and status because their decisions tend to be dictated by fears. Their goal is to avoid pain and failure and simply stick to what they know. That’s why outsiders rarely understand the forces that pull passionate people away from “sensible” decisions in life.We all know that growth and success can only happen when we make short-term sacrifices to overcome the obstacles and beat the odds. And once you make the choice to burst out of your protective shell and work with intensity, then you’re ready to discover and pursue your deepest passion.
- How Do You Discover Your Passions?
- 1. Make a list of your favorite pastimes. Write down your favorite activities and pastimes, even the ones from your childhood. You might already be spending time on your passion without even realizing it2. Start a new hobby. Don’t limit yourself to what you know. Go try something completely new and get involved with hobbies that your friends and family enjoy. This will allow you to start discovering some new joys you may have never considered.
- 3.Make a list of your talents. They don’t have to be related to your current job, just allowing the pen to flow freely on the paper will allow you to have new hidden insights. 4. Ask your loved ones. Sometimes just asking other people you trust can do the trick because they can see what makes you happy better than you can.
- 5. Look at your long-term interests in life. Are there themes or events in your life that always seem to pop up? Examining those things can lead you to start covering your life’s passion. 6. Be honest with yourself. Sometimes people mistake their passion for something they’re talented at doing instead of something they enjoy doing. Do what you love, not just what you’re good at . This will make more sense because you will have more fun doing it.
- 7. Make a list of things that dominate your conversations. If you are constantly turn your talking towards certain subjects, it may be something you should actively pursue.8. Find ways to get involved in your community. Playing recreational sports and engaging in activities at the local community centre can be a great way to start meeting new people. We often continue the learning process from others through conversation and circumstance.
- 9. Help others. Forget about yourself and try helping others in your community. Kindness and charity start unlocking your real passions in life.10. Find a mentor. You can find someone willing to start showing you the ropes and you’ll have a unique insider’s perspective and a confidant. Plus, you’ll be able to bypass some of the initial learning curve.
