Where our True Passion Lies and how to work towards Passionate Success

When I talk to people about finding their dream job, I first ask "What are you really passionate about?"

Usually they would respond with a great answer, but it trails a certain "I shouldn't say this" kind of tone. They've been conditioned to believe that their dreams are only just that.

Held by fear, sustained by "Reality". Here's Reality. What's your Passion? What drives you? If you would wake up one day and realize that you would get paid to do your Passion on a day to day basis how would you feel? Imagine a day in the life of your Dream Job.

The trick of turning that Dream Job into Reality Job is to set a plan. Like I heard once in a seminar (I apologize for not remembering who said this): "A Dream without a Plan is a Wish".

Set a plan. What's your Goal? Work from Z-A, not A-Z. Set the title of what you want in Life, and work the steps backward. Then look at step A and begin. Now. Make little steps so later you will look back and realize you've made great advancements with daily success as your motivation.

If you need help forming a plan, myself as a Life/Wellness Coach can guide you to solutions for your personal and professional goals. I'm only a comment/email/message away.

So how do you work towards Passionate Success? First, set up your plan. Then, actually do it. Don't "Try"
...Well, I'm trying to get this, or trying to achieve that, etc. Just start doing it. If you make a mistake, so what? You're not the only person in this world who has made a mistake.

Start today. Start Now.

Seeking for Meaning

Looking for your Purpose? Reading up on books, listening to audio, talking to others and getting their thoughts, etc?

Don't get me wrong; those are avenues  you can take and there are a multitude of material out there to tap into.

...how about this...
(I'll be quoting some quotes but I didn't find the person who summarized these things)

When you wake up and you don't find yourself excited to pick up where you left your work yesterday, you probably haven't found your calling.

Remember to keep your dreams in the forefront of your mind - visualization is crucial to goal achieving. Your Dreams express what your soul is telling you, so as crazy as it may seem -- listen to what your Dreams are telling you.

Find your passion and Grow into it - spend 15-20 minutes a day working/reading/growing into it. Since time is our non-refundable currency in this world, you might as well allocate it to your passion; squeeze the most out of that time you have to give.

Position or Choice: What are you going to do?



Watched a fantastic video this morning by Simon Sinek: Why Leaders Eat Last.


A great talk (and if you make the time to watch) and great takeaways if you have a pen/paper (which you need to do):





Talking about chemicals that drive ourselves in this world in this video, the one that really stands out is oxytocin: the feelings of safety, trust, and love. We get throse through physical contact (hugging, shaking of hands) or acts of generosity

...money does not work as true Generosity...

It's our Time and Energy that matter: the one form of currency that once we spend it, we can't get a refund.

I do not have the Title of Fitness/Life Coach for the enjoyment of "Position". That's crap.

I Choose to be a Fitness/Life Coach because I want to give my time and energy to those that want to change their lives through working out and eating right. I Choose to help others achieve what they think is unachievable.

Believe me, if you let yourself be vulnerable with me, we can achieve great things. All you need to do is start taking steps rather than always "planning" steps to get where you want to go.

Planning is nice; action is desperately needed to turn Dreams into Deadlines.
