I used to think having passion for something was this big over dramatised thing that you often see on TV, where people get over excited or the opposite and start crying because they're so emotionally moved by something.
It doesn't have to be like this, having passion for something can be as simple as really loving what you are doing and that's what I'm all about.
You should never have to do something you don't like doing! Unfortunately most of us are bullied into it and the saddest thing about that, we are 'bullied' by our friends, family and loved ones.
Do any of these sound familiar....."You need to work full time so you can support your family." "It's all very well having your dreams but you need to get realistic."" We have bills to pay."
The fact is you can do this, and work all kinds of hours to support your loved ones but then where is the quality time you spend with them, often your too tired and just want to relax on the time you do get of, so the time you do have is far from quality.
Now I'm certainly not saying quit your job and abstain from any responsibility, but I am asking you to imagine what would your life be like, if you were doing something you truly loved to do and even get paid for it.
When you're happier, the people around you will be and when you're doing what you love, you'll find less problems and more to be grateful for, ultimately living a more fulfilled life.
One of the biggest questions we, as human beings ask ourselves, is "Why are we here?" To me it's not so much about the destination as the journey. I think ultimately, we are here to learn. I'm not talking about the school and educational learning. I'm talking about learning, how to be our true authentic self. This is how we come into this world but it is taken away with limitations and expectations put on to us from our parents, friends our school teachers our jobs, the government and that basically comes down to a control thing, but all of this as we are growing up takes us further and further away from our true selves. We fit in to society because that is what's expected.
What is one thing that you really love to do? What brings you joy? Is there something you have always wanted to try and have never got round to it?
This week find one thing you love doing or have always wanted to try and do it. It could be taking a dance class, a cooking class, it could be taking a nice candle lit bath or spending a few hours in nature. Give yourself this gift. You deserve it :-)
Have an Empowered and Joyful Week
Much Love & Gratitude
