Each week, I tune into HayHouseRadio.com to hear my favorite authors take calls from listeners. Most callers have the same issues - they are miserable in their jobs and dislike their careers.
The caller usually rants, “I'm just not doing what I KNOW I should be doing...I’m not living my PASSION!” The host, by this time, is probably chewing on the end of her pencil and checking e-mail for the latest on Paris Hilton.
Your passion doesn’t have to be what you do for a living, although blending the two is ideal.
Maybe you already know what makes your heart sing. Congratulations.
But judging from what I hear, most people don’t have a clue.
The following is a list of questions to ask yourself about discovering your passion. Take some time to read these questions and contemplate your answers. Notice any patterns in your responses.
1) What section of the bookstore do you visit first?
2) What are your three favorite movies of all time?
3) What are your three favorite songs of all time?
4) Whose life would you like to have for 30 days?
5) What subjects come to mind when you daydream?
6) If you volunteer, what types of volunteer activities do you prefer? Why is this important to you?
7) If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Why?
8) What tasks, job duties, etc. have brought you the most success?
9) If you could make only one positive change in the world today, what would it be?
10) During the past week, what was something you felt strongly about?
11) What subject do you love to talk about with others? (Not including yourself – haha)
