Why you need to find passion?

"Passion is the fuel
that drives
achievement and
can lead to higher
levels of happiness"

Have you ever known anyone who accomplished great things or was extremely happy, that didn't have passion? No, of course not. It's the passionate people who get things done. They are like magnets to others. Others want to help them reach their goals because of their passion.

"greatness is not possible without passion"

So what is your passion? Have you lost it over the years or did you ever have it? Would you like to know how to find your passion?

First off, here is what deters you from finding your passion....fear, self-doubt and caution.

Here are some questions you can ask yourself to help determine the areas of your passion:

*What did you want to be as a child?

* What are you good at?

* What do you daydream about?

* What are the things you really enjoy doing?

* What have you always dreamed about doing but never told anyone?

* Who do you envy and why?

And when you think you've identified your passion and you start doing something about it, here's how you will know your on the right track. You will know by the energy you get from it. If you are passionate you won't have any problems with procrastination or lack of energy.

"If you can't put your heart into it,

then find something else"

hi - linked to your 'passion' article from lifehacker (a great site). I agree - better to do what you love and never be financially wealthy than to make millions and hate every moment of your waking day because of what you have to do to make your millions.

Fear and self-doubt will prevent anyone from following the advice in this post, thus it would be helpful to have some tips on how to defeat these *before* trying to remember what one wants to do in life. Otherwise, those daydreams about old goals from youth will be squashed by an immediate "Oh, but I'm no good at that, so I need to pick something else and stop being silly."... which could also be interpreted as "caution".

I also got here from you post at lifehacker (which in itself was a great article)

but you really strike a cord here, I think it's very hard to find your passion and even harder to follow it....

I agree with anonymous that we need more on this subject and specially on how to beat the fear factor :(
