What are you passionate about?



I recently attended a meeting where I was engaged in conversation with a few ladies about their hobbies and what they did for a living. During the multiple conversations someone stated she was in the process of getting her Pharm D. Which is a Doctoral Degree in Pharmacy. She recently stopped going to school. She stated she woke up one morning and said I don't want to do this anymore, this is not what I'm passionate about. My response to her was WOW! What a brave move. She is searching and trying to discover what she is passionate about. One thing she knew for sure it was not Pharmacy. I asked the same question of you, what are you passionate about? Try this three step process. First just ask yourself what do you like to do. Second, ask yourself what do you strongly dislike. Lastly, ask yourself what change do you want to see in the world. Most likely the change you want to see in the world relates to the activity/gesture you strongly dislike.The area you strongly dislike is most likely where your passion lies. For example, if you dislike to hear about starving and homeless children in your community and love to volunteer, your passion may lie in feeding and helping homeless children. You may want to start an organization to help this need. Take time and think about these questions. As I always advise people, someone is waiting for you to fulfill your passion, don't keep them waiting long.

Your thoughts are welcome...
