PASSION! Where and What It can get You.

John. C. Maxwell in his book ‘leadership gold’ state that ‘Passion is an incredible asset ; every person but for especially leaders. It keeps us going when others quit. It becomes contagious and influences people to follow us. It pushes us through the toughest of times and gives us energy we do not know we possessed. It fuels us in the way that talent, opportunity, knowledge and great team cannot’. Hmmm! Take a deep breath. What do you think? John Maxwell has been a leader for almost Forty years now, so he definately knows what he is talking about. I believe we are all familiar with this advice that says ‘Find something you love to do so much that you will gladly do it for nothing; then learn to do it well that people are happy and willing to pay you for it’. Trust me, that is what great people with great achievement and accomplishment have done in thier career. But then, What is Passion itself? According to english mini dictionary, Passion is any great, strong and powerful emotion especially romantic love and hate. Passion is a strong will, a zeal, a determination, what you love doing and will go extra mile to achieve. For example, my own passion is to help people and putting smiles on thier face naturally with no strings attached. I’m also passionate about books especially the ones that gets me inspired and can help me become what and who i want to become. You want to find your potential? Following your passion is the key.

Passion can get you anywhere you want to to be and it can get you whatever you want. Following your passion might seem time consuming and time wasting at first, it might also seem like you lagging behind your mate but trust me, it will make you believe things you never would have believe, make you meet people you would never have met, attempt things you would never have attempt, motivate people you would never have motivated, learn life lessons you would never have learn and in the long run, make you accomplish what you could never have accomplished.
Your passion is what drives you, what keeps you going, what makes you believe that nothing is impossible. When you feel like quitting or giving up, yourpassion is always there to give you enough reasons not to. When you pursue what you are trully and really passionate about, it makes all the difference and give you an edge over your mate. Passiin fills you with energy and desire and it also fills you with a rage to win nomatter what comes your way.
Sincerely, passion is what has been driving me, it is what has always kept me going and i strongly believe that it will surely get me where i want and what i want. The earlier we realise this, the better it is for us to realise what we are passionate about and start following it. Always remember, Passion is a real difference maker. It seperate the Extra-ordinary from the Ordinary people…….
