My wife and I were watching some biography types of programs on Oprah’s OWN channel this weekend and I heard great line, well I heard quite a few good lines, from George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars saga. When asked how he knew what his passion was he stated, “When you sit down to do something at seven o’clock in the morning, you get hungry and you get something to eat and you realize it’s seven o’clock at night. That’s your passion.”
I don’t think it can get any better than that or more accurate. Learning to make money online or build a business on the Internet is not for everyone. It might not make sense that someone trying to promote a money making program like ZNZ One or the 5 Dollar Money Bomb may say something like this. I personally love the idea of having a business that I can work from anywhere in the world and it’s the driving force behind what get me out of bed…eventually gets me out of bed!
With that said, I can sit down in front of the computer, start writing an article or start doing my keyword research and start creating content for my blog and not even think about getting tired, or think of this as work. Look, I was a plumber for years and while I was grateful to have a career in a trade where there was always something to do, I got to the point where I just didn’t want to get out of bed and go to work. I would stay awake at night because I didn’t want to hit the bed, go to sleep and just have to get up again and do it all over!
For me, working on the computer is one of the most satisfying activities that I have ever done. I enjoy writing, I enjoy making videos and I enjoy research. Basically, I like everything involved in building a blog up and marketing it or a program that I am trying out. This IS my passion!
If you aren’t having fun folks, stop…stop right now and figure out what it is that you are doing this for. If this is work to you, ask yourself if this is what you want to be doing for the next few years. Would you do this without making any money from it? I love it, I probably would, but would you?
Finding out what it is that you love, what it is that you have passion for is one of those processes that can take a lifetime to find or can be something you know when you’re five. Whatever it is, whether you are eight or eighty, find your passion, find what it is you love. Remember what Confucius said, “Find a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” Words to live by, now get out there and find your passion.
