Thanks a lot.

You are absolutely right. It's a lot easier to do what I do when I understand why I need to do it :)

This is an important post! Beautifully written -- who would NOT relate?

You wrote, 'I can't focus when I'm not focused... (when I am) unfocused and cluttered.'

Me too.

Passion answers the huge question WHY? we do what we must do. What difference does it make? Who cares? When those questions have answers, and we're consumed with the possibilities arising from those answers, we have indeed found our passion.

I'm betting there is no status quo to your passion. That it will evolve and grow and continue to energize you to perform.

Good for you for recognizing it when it hit you, even peripherally. Finding passion is imperative to living life fully.

That surely is intense. Ideas surely have that power over us and blogging
helps us give clarity to our ideas. That part alone might explain why we
are passionate about writing or blogging. Thanks a lot for sharing us your
thoughts.

Rhis may be waaaay to personal, but every morning I sit in the "thrwon room" and I ask myself "What is you passion?" and for the life of me I cannnot come up with an answer. But I do know one thing I do find myself spring out of bed when I have an idea for a post or I need to update a phrase before a scheduled post goes live.

So I am beginning to think that Blogging is my passion.

I am a big fan of Kiva.org.

Thanks a lot. My work at the college has nothing to do with writing, I'm there to help recruit new students and help with branding. I guess I could write more, but I'm afraid it's not time.

I love blogging as well. It's awesome when you can do what you want to do without listening to other people tell you what they want you to do :D

Hi Angel,

A lot of people feel lost. What's important is that you've made a choice that's your choice and not your dad's. Keep making your own choices and keep thinking about what you really want to do. Is there one thing you are really good at, and do you have fun doing it?

I recommend the ebook "Reclaim Your Dreams" by Jonathan Mead. It was very inspiring to me.

Passion? Passionate? It always comes back to finances. Not mine, well, mine, but others. I have a fondness for numbers and money and people. So many are unprepared going into life. Our children don't learn how to manage money at home because their parents don't know either. Maybe financial education. To the poor, the ignorant [not in a bad way], the uninformed. This great disservice passed down by people who had the best of intentions.

I am passionate about my family. All I do is for them. I worry when those times come that I think I'm falling short and I am ecstatic when I know that I am providing all that they need.

Unfortunately I have worked so hard that I haven't been able to spend as much time with my kids as I would have liked, but life is what it is and I have no regrets.
