1. WHAT DIFFERENCE ARE YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT MAKING IN OTHERS’ LIVES?
Notice, I didn’t ask “what are you passionate about”? Instead, I want you to determine the purpose of your passion, which is using it to positively impact the world. That type of drive attracts opportunities that often lead to raises, job offers, and new business. To turn your passion into profit, you must fulfill a purpose that others need or want. Unfortunately, people and companies aren’t particularly concerned with whether you get to pursue your passion. They spend money on people, products and services that fulfill their needs and desires. When you focus on your passion—then find a way to allow your passion to impact others, you have a winning formula!
2. HAVE YOU MASTERED YOUR CRAFT?
It isn’t enough to have talent. Allow your passion to fuel a desire to learn more about your field of endeavor—and improve your skills and knowledge. Those who “master their craft,” go above and beyond others in their field. They introduce new ways of doing things, inspire trends, and blaze trails that others follow.
3. ARE YOU PASSION-DRIVEN OR PROFIT-DRIVEN?
When you are passionate about what you do, you give 110%. Those who are most sought-after for their skills are often those whose passion creates results that people need. Their passion for what they do sparks creativity, perseverance and excellence. You cannot underestimate the power of passion to produce excellence and perseverance—two assets you need to truly profit from what you love. Success comes to those who are willing to stay the course despite adversities, challenges and distractions. Copy: success
