Maybe it's just me... or maybe we have a confusion in the semantic... but I feel that I could get passionate about anything that is important enough to warrant the effort...

The way that I would do that is...

1. Attach great importance to whatever I want to be passionate about...

2. Adopt the position that "state control" (being able to get passionate whenever I want too) is essential to self-mastery and that self-mastery is the ultimate mastery... or the peak of self-development....
