I - Ignite your passions

Posted by Claudia Moser on 7:20 AM in , ,


Your passion is in you somewhere. Remember it or find it. Then turn your passion into action. Find the road that leads to success with your passion. You can do it! When you combine passion with skill and contribution, success is not far behind. Find and ignite your passion today!

What I would suggest is a list based on some simple questions:

What makes you giddy with excitement?

What breaks your heart?

What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?

What makes you feel like you’ve contributed?

Somehow I know that if you truly answer at least one question, you will be amazed of the answer! Try :)

Just to let you know that many comments tend to land in the spam area, for no reason at all, sorry!


I get frozen on the action part...

Another post of yours that I need to print and put on my wall here in the Cave. :)


@Amy - thank you Amy for your kind words!


passions? I have a passion for family...that and books! ;) Great letter 'I' post. I am here form the challenge and am going to follow you too.


@Melody - books, that is also one of my passions :) and thanks for the following :)


Claudia,
Great post. There are so many people who don't know what they are good at or what they have passion about. It is so important to find that or they can't truly live out their purpose in life!

I am passionate about Jesus, drama, encouraging others, and writing.

I explore my passions every day, contribute to their growth, and write out my life on a regular basis. There are some great questions at the end of your post... my favorite is:

"What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?" I would only add to whatever the response might be... "What are you waiting for?"


Love this post - so important to stop and really look at where you are headed!


Loved it because anything that makes me look at myself and ask, "Are you being all you can be?" is a good piece. This one not only did that, but maybe I'll be rethinking some things and making some changes.
Thanks Claudia. ♥

Hi Claudia! Great post for the letter I. I've copied down the questions so I can think about them and answer them. Have an awesome day!

@Susanne - I am happy that my post is so inspirational :) have a great day as well!


Thought-provoking post, Claudia. Most of the things I have passion for--reading, art, crocheting, writing, traveling--are things that I can't make a living at in the world, but maybe that's what passions are supposed to be about. I'm thinking that when I retire I'd love to spend my time doing exactly those things.


@Elaine - that is also my dream, to have a knitting shop one day and start a club :))


Wonderful questions! I know my answer...now I've just got to make the time to pursue it more. ;)

Thank you for your comments, I appreciate them all!

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
