I love to write - this is what I really want to do.

How did I discover this as my passion? It took a while (a number of years!) to realize as I have been in different jobs that require development of written material for all sorts of reasons………but the real passion is writing about what I believe, value and what I am totally interested in.

What’s you passion in life? If you had to select one thing, what would it be?

Try not to clutter your choice with a whole lot of options - really seriously think of the one thing the “floats your boat”! Because if you do this, you create the space in your thinking and your life activities to invest the time and energy into something that has total meaning for you.

I have used a lot of my ‘free time’ to engage in writing, juggling this passion with my work and my coaching services. Because I discovered this passion, I was prepared and able to successfully manage this juggling act. Where it will lead me, I believe, is to a position where I won’t have to juggle my time and focus anymore…..because I know writing is what I want to do.

So, how can you discover what your inner passion is?

Here are a couple of questions for you to consider, to help you find out what really is important, energizing and motivating in your life.

• Think of your skills. What are you really good at? Where do you apply these skills and get satisfaction from or a feeling of success as a result?
• Think about your past. When have you received positive, constructive feedback about your skills or abilities? What were you doing when you received this feedback? For example, I used to get comments such as “Where did you learn to write?” and feedback about how well I expressed an idea or concept in the written material I developed.
• When do you feel most energized and motivated? What are you doing at these times?

Maybe your inner passion is worth pursuing to achieve financial gain or freedom. Perhaps it provides you with immense satisfaction and enjoyment of life as it balances out your work commitments. Whatever the reason, discover what you really want to do to add meaning to your life.
