How to find your passion and do what you love

 Oprah Winfrey said, “Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.

Your passion is something you love so much and can do that particular work without feeling any stress and while doing you will enjoy that most whatever that brings you success or not, brings money or not. You will do that for free even.

“It’s never too late to be who you might have been,” George Elliot once said. But how to know what we might have been? Unfortunately, many of us don’t know about our talent, our strength or what do we enjoy to do. Your passion brings out the authentic you. Passion is something that you enjoy giving every single effort for your particular work.

Human being are so much imitative. We try to follow what others do and also try to do that. But that doesn’t give us our desiring result. Have you thought why is the person so joyful about his work and why do you get frustrated or feel lost despite following him? It’s is because you don’t know you. You don’t know what is your purpose or passion. “The two important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why”  a quote of Mark Twain lauded as the 'greatest American humorist of his age'.

I, myself believe in the power of our enthusiasm that can lead us towards our goals. Here are some aspects of finding passion and proceed accordingly

1.Do what you love:

Your passion is something you love so much and can do that particular work without feeling any stress and while doing you will enjoy that most whatever that brings you success or not, brings money or not. You will do that for free even. One of my favorite quotes of Kristin Hannah is, “Finding your passion isn’t just about your career and money. It’s about finding your authentic self. The one that you’ve buried beneath other people’s needs.”

There is a tendency in our society is money making. But hankering after money let us forget about our passion sometimes. For example, I loved to write from my very childhood. But what I heard always from others is that make your goal, you have to be a doctor/engineer/teacher or etc. No one never come to me and asked me what do you like to do? What kind of work makes you happy? When I used to write my diaries, I felt like this is myself. That’s how I understood I love to write. Finding your passion is the best thing can happen to you ever. It is because you would do that particular job more and more, feel like doing all the time you have and most importantly you will never feel bored or tired as this is what gives you relaxation and enjoyment.

 2.A push to the road of success:

Remember success doesn’t mean to reach the highest position or being the richest. When you are doing something you are passionate about, you keep pushing yourself towards your work. And your continuous pushing towards your work leads to the door of success. In this world, ever successful people around the world have always told about your curiosity, passion and hard labor have always been the reason behind their success.

“To succeed you have to believe in something with such a passion that it becomes in reality.”_ Anita Roddick

3.Don’t limit your boundaries:

Paula Redcliff quoted, “Never set limits, go after your dreams. Don’t be afraid to push the boundaries. And laugh a lot-it’s good for you!”

Challenges are to make us stronger whereas limitations are the barriers of challenges. You never know your limit until you put yourself in the situation. Don’t make a fence around your boundaries. It will bring you down. The society tends to focus on your weaknesses. No one tries to recognize your strengths. You should not give up on you. Keep focusing on your strengths as our real passion lays in our strengths. Also mark your weaknesses. When you are able to know your average situation, that will help to take you the right steps. For example, Steve Jobs was not the best engineer, businessman or a sales person in the world. He had some skills regarding this field which lead him to one of the most successful person in the world.

4.Don’t Compromise:

Well, that may sound  a little bit selfish. But it’s okay to be selfish when it comes to your passion. You don’t need to sacrifice your time always for other people. Put yourself first in your list. And yourself indicates your passion.

“One of the truest tests of integrity is its blunt refusal to be compromised”- Chinua Achebe.

Yes it is true that life is not about yourself only. You are included with many others. But always compromising with your passion is not good for you. You need to balance out for that.

5.Live your life:

Life is so short and unpredictable. Each steps we take, we step forward to death. This is your life which is too short to live others lives. Give yourself time and do what you like to do.

 “If you feel like there’s something out there that you’re supposed to be doing, if you have a passion for it, then stop wishing and just do it.” —Wanda Skyes

“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

 Life always does not go on according to our expectations. Be positive and take controls. It’s not very challenging to find your purpose or passion. Just think about yourself and try to discover the real you. Because doing what you love is the best aspect of living.
