How To Find Your Passion


“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.Harriet Tubman
Imagine yourself living a life where you get every morning excited to do something that you love; that is the power of passion. When you are passionate, you exudes enthusiasm, you create a group dynamics and everyone around you get excited which will contribute to your success. Therefore, if you have to choose between businesses to start choose what you are most passionate about. Unfortunately, many people do not know what they are passionate about and they struggle in finding what they love.
Let’s dive in and try to find your own passion using those simple tips:

Follow your curiosity
Start looking in things that you already do like hobbies, if there is something that you really appreciate in your hobbies, you are already in the half of the road and you just have to figure out a way to monetize it. If you did not find your satisfaction in hobbies, try to discover less obvious interests by analyzing what you read frequently or what you like watching. To do this, I suggest creating a board where you can collect articles, books, images and videos that you like, try to extract 10 major topics from your board, classify those topics from the most interesting to the less one(use elimination process) and then focus on your top 3 topics to build up a clear vision about your passion.

Search for possibilities
Look in the internet for new ideas and read stories of passionate people. Get more involved in your life, do not avoid responsibilities and try to experience new things. Remember that your passion is in somewhere out there, you just did not experience the right moments to discover it and by challenging yourself constantly, you will find it at the end. You can also study people who had discovered their passion and they are successful in the area you want to step in; this will help you to know what you have in common with those people, which may lead you to uncover your passion.

Stop being pragmatic
Do not get obsessed about making profit from your passion while you have not find it yet. You have to dedicate yourself to discover who you are, to connect with your own interests, because once you start thinking about money the whole process will fall down and you will just flop from one thing to another. Yes, it is beautiful to make a higher earning with your passion but at this point, your financial concerns will just limit your vision.
