Wrong Question 4: How Do I Find My Passion?

 

Question: How Do I Find My Passion?

It's the wrong question: instead ask 'when will I get more passionate?'

Why? (1) Only a few stumble across their passion (2) waiting for it 'to appear' is a time-consuming and disheartening process (3) So: get passionate. About answering calls, doing spreadsheets, writing reports, making cakes, getting trains to run on time, healing ill patients, teaching Michael Porter to MBA students; whatever happens to be your day job. And out of those activities something will appear which is effortless, enjoyable and time stands still. You have a passion: you have lift-off. (4) The reality: passions are more often created than discovered.
