Do you work to earn a living?
Or do you love what you do so much that you’d do it for free?
If you work to earn a living, how would your life change if you loved your work instead?
We’ve all participated in those retreats or workshops on how to be more successful. I remember being part of a workshop that asked the participants to draw a picture of what their job would look like if they were passionate about it.
I felt bad for everyone that drew a picture. I didn’t draw one. I pulled out a picture from my backpack and shared a picture of my family. I already had what I wanted from my job.
My passion is being able to do something that I love from home and spend time with my kids.
I realized then as I realize now - how fortunate that is.
Miguel: very good interview and valid points. I agree with the passion factor. There are times when its hard to wake up with the same momentum day in and day out. Passion is the perfect fuel to make a difference in this world, while enjoying it.
Thanks again for the feedback Eduardo. I think without passion one can wander aimlessly from job to job without a path to inner happiness. I think it’s possible to have both. I appreciate your feedback!
