When I think about living my passion, I think about how lucky I am to have another chance to do just that. And how important it is not to let this opportunity be wasted.
It takes introspection to tap into what that passion looks like. It takes being true to yourself, and not worrying about what other people think you should do.
What I’ve discovered is that my passion is not conventional. It’s not the normal 9-5, working in a cubical job. But that’s also how I know I’m on the right track. I’m not a conventional, 9-5 person, by any stretch of the imagination.
Another way to know that I’m on the right track is that my passion reflects what I’ve been interested in, and have been doing in my life for years. My researching nutrition, supplements, exercise and attitude all this time was an indication that I have a true love for that knowledge. I’ve been sharing it with family and friends all along the way, with a passion I might add.
You may not have had the time to indulge in your passions in your old life. Good news flash: now you do!
Serious soul searching is required here. And don’t edit yourself, like I’ve said before. Think outside the box.
Ask yourself what would make you bound out of bed every morning? What would make you feel like you were contributing to the world? What would make you glad to be alive?
Now keep a journal of your ideas. Find the common thread. Again, no editing.
How do you feel about that thread? Does it excite you? Give you that chill you’ve been missing? Bring a smile to your face? That is your goal.
Now that I can actually make my passion into a career and lifestyle, the possibilities are endless. And the reality of that is thrilling! But also a little overwhelming. That’s where courage, and a goal plan come in. More on that later.
There aren’t many second chances in life. And we are lucky when we get them. That’s why it is so important to make the most of the opportunity when it comes along.
It is your turn to make the decision on what you are going to do with the rest of your life.
It is time to live your Passion.
It’s time to live your Purpose.
It’s time to live ON PURPOSE.
Happy Living!
