You think no one else knows how tough it is. Combat the loss of passion that comes from carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders by sharing that
        weight with others.  Develop a partnership with others with whom you can develop creative strategies and solutions to reduce your stress.

        Planning for passion includes planning your activity. Take a serious look at your life, see what it looks like. If you've lost your passion, it may be that life has
        become routine for you. You've gotten tired of "the same old thing." Add excitement by adding new activities. Most importantly, get involved in something
        bigger than yourself. Create a purpose for your life that includes more than just earning a living. You will eagerly put your heart and soul into a purpose you
        love and believe in.


        Commit to Passion

        Is passion missing in your life? Do you want to bring it back? If so, commit to start with your heart. Do not deny the feelings that arouse passion within you.
        Accept them and move forward with them. Have big dreams. Don't let anyone else tell you what your dreams ought to be. Your dreams are yours alone. Henry
        David Thoreau wrote:

        “When one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected
        in common hours."


        You are capable of greatness and entitled to it, but you and only you can bring it about. By embracing your passion and committing to your passions, you are
        vowing to take control of your life, and to create a self-fulfilling future of happiness and fulfilment.

        Passion is what life is all about.

        People are attracted to our glowing energy and passion.

        People are attracted to our highest and best. When you display “need” or sadness, or clinging, or even an unconscious attitude of seeming as if you must have
        their attention, or togetherness, this sends off signals that are picked up as needy, clinging, desiring, as well as an unspoken energy that somehow you are less
        than complete without a certain person in your life. This is not attractive or desirable.

        What kind of people are most attractive and desirable? Those that are radiating a glowing and genuine self-confidence; people who have a solid and authentic
        sense of self, people that radiate inner strength, dignity, self-respect, and passion. People that know who they are, why they are here, have clear boundaries, as
        well as healthy and authentic methods of personal communication. People with a backbone that can also be gentle. In short, people that are genuinely shining
        from within.
