How to Develop a Passion
67"Get from wher you are to where you want to be"
In Jack Canfield's self help book "The Success Principles" he writes that in order to develop true joy in success you must find out what your passions are. Most people spend years and sometimes their whole lives trying to figure out what their passions are. Passions are simply the things that you are most enthusiastic about in your life. In order to figure out what your passions are, take note of the times when you felt the happiest, on target, and most connected with others and yourself. Figure out what you were doing in those times and what you were experiencing. Remember that the "...key to passion and enthusiasm is to reconnect with your original purpose for doing anything that you do." These experiences are signs of how to bring passion to your life, excluding your everday work.
JC says that "If you're not skilled enough to do the work you'd love to do, make time to educate yourself so you are. Do whatever it takes to prepare--working part time in your dream job or even volunteering as an intern--while still mainting your current job.
Lastly, in order to maintain those passions and desires it is important to spend time everday doing those things.

Brad, How has Canfield's book helped you with regards to this specific topic?
This book has really inspired me to dream big, and to do the extra little things that will eventually get me closer to my goals. After reading each and every chapter I felt more empowered to get what I really want out of life.
For some time now I have been feeling that I have no joy in my life. Recently, I called my mother to ask her opinion one why I feel so unhappy. Her usual advise, although very supportive and loving, is that this too shall pass. One thing we both agree on is that I am unhappy. Thank you for giving me some thing to focus on. The question of when was I happy and where do my joys lie. If I make any progress I'll let you know.
