I would rather be in the pursuit of passion
than in the pursuit of happiness.
I would rather be passionate than happy.
Somewhere early in my life passion became one of the emotions I realized was a key
I would avoid jealousy and hatred
I would pursue passion and joy and love.
I have felt jealousy, and it is a gnawing, destructive emotion. It pulls you and those around you down. It comes from a sense of lack, of "not enough".
I have felt passion, and it is a powerful emotion:
Talent + experience + passion = unstoppable
Passion is the fuel that keeps the fire burning.
This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
