Sometimes I have those days where things just don´t go well and I wonder where did all that crap come from! Do you ever have days like that?
Passion and finding your passion is something that get´s thrown around a lot, but how do you actually make that real life connection with your passion? |
In 2007 I was fired and I started my first company (that failed) where my sole focus was on making a MASSIVE amount of money. My passion was connected to making money and achieving social status. I believed that would solve all my self-esteem issues and everything else that was a burden in my life.
The same “passion” for money also drove me straight into the wall in 2010. From that experience I had to redefine what my passion should be focused on. It has taken me about 6 years to really nail it down, but now that I´m more clear on why I get up in the morning I would like to share it with you.
✓ A higher purpose than myself- ie. adding as much value to others and the world as I possibly can
✓ Love for the game of life and business
✓ Achieving mastery in business and sharing that knowledge with others
Those are the three things that get me up in the morning and that I look to when those crap days come along and knock me off my feet. Yes, that still happens and will continue to happen in the foreseeable future. On those days I also try to remember that; “Challenges are gifts from God so we can grow.”
