Great man are animated by passion… Great achievements were the results of Passion…

We all have Passion… we were born with it… however, in many cases, it was all but destroyed by frustration and failures.

This thread is all about Passion… how to get it and how to use it…

Let us share stories on how Passion has helped you on occasions and how it has affected your life…

Also any of your personal secrets on how to create it and how to keep the flame alive…

Ah yes, passion!

And it's so much easier to come by if we dedicate ourselves to things we can feel passionate about!

Passion follows purpose. That's my secret to creating passion!

A person might feel passion about one of his natural gifts, like painting, writing, or counseling. But if he can find a way to use the gifts he is passionate about to advance a cause he really believes in, he will become a true force of nature, and nothing will be able to stop him.

I started building my Web Site two weeks ago, a true object of passion! In two weeks, I've reserved the domain name, installed WordPress, customized the heck out of my navigation and presentation, started monetizing, started the first round of multi-browser debugging, and most imporantly, I've written 18 articles, close to 40 pages. This project is very dear to my heart! My passion is my driving force. Without passion, I'd still be sitting around thinking about doing it instead of making it happen. Two weeks worth of 15 hour days is no sweat when you love what you're doing!
