Default How Do You Live With Passion?

Sparking off this inspirational post by Veron on what it means to her to live with passion, I thought I'd take my own shot at it and listen to what my fellow personal development lovers have to say.

How Do You Live With Passion?

By greeting the morning each day with a big smile, happy to be here and grateful for more one day.

By recognizing each and every day just how much of a miracle it is to be alive.

By stopping, taking a deep breath every day to see, hear and feel what it's like to just be.

To see, hear and feel the beauty that is already all around us.

To give your loved ones a hug every time you see them.

To treasure the ones around you because you never know when their or your time will come.

To give your special someone a great big hug and kiss every single day.

To make the first caring move even when no-one else has made it.

To dare to dream, and move on your dreams.

To live on the edge of what you think you can do, and push out that little bit more.

To forgive.

To laugh often, for no great reason.

To give everyone you see a smile.

To make the room a better place, just because you're here.

To approach that interesting stranger, because you never know what might happen.

To know your fears and face them.

To ask other people how they live with passion

Stop reading "inspirational" platitudes, turn off your computer, stop thinking about achievement and go accomplish something and smile about it.

That's my contribution.

I'm gonna go do that now.

Keep the hunger to learn burning every single day.

See good things in the future.

Do things that are good for you...and scare you.

Realize you don't know everything.

Be curious.

Keep a sense of wonder.

Appreciate the world.

Learn something new every single day.

Don't depend on anyone for all of your answers.

Find out what the heck you really want to do in your life.

For me there is only one thing I can do that will make me happy and I am doing it - in future I guess this will change but it comes down to you working out what you really want ot do in your life.

I keep focus on what makes me happy - my chosen profession

As for passion I leave that for the bedroom, I think that is where it belongs.
