Do you spend a lot of time doing things you simply don’t want to do, going places you don’t want to go to, just because you feel you have to? Does life feel like it is nothing more than working to bring home a pay check and meeting the expectations that others have set for you? You need to find your passion for success.
I am truly excited and passionate about my work and that is why I have no doubts about my success. Success not only financially, but also in terms of my emotional, spiritual, physical, interpersonal and professional experiences. My life now is completely of my choosing. I’m doing exactly what I want to do. But it hasn’t always been like that. I got caught up in the rat race. I was good at what I did, and got paid really well for it, but I didn’t enjoy my work or the life it gave me at all. Now my life is full of zest, and I may be working just as hard, but I love every second of it.
So you’re earning descent money already, but you’re just not happy. You don’t understand why. Well let me explain. You don’t just want a big pay check; you want to feel good about how you earn it. You want to take pride in your work, be excited about it and know that you are contented with life.
It was less than 20 months ago I started my blog and in that time it has helped me make a difference to many other people’s lives and changed my own. Anyone can create a blog, but very few people will create a blog that really stands out and that matters. When you get it right a blog can be a fantastic platform to build a business around, the kind of flexible business you can run on your terms from anywhere in the world. My blog is only a small piece of my online business, but I admit it is my favourite part. It’s not the bit that makes me the biggest income, but it’s the heart and soul behind everything I do.
As I wrote yesterday, I see myself as a lifestyle entrepreneur and enjoy the fact that I run a business that is location independent, and hence soon I will be able to base myself on the island of Majorca. But this certainly doesn’t mean I’m accepting old age and heading into retirement or that I’m now going to enjoy a permanent vacation. I love my work too much to consider ever giving it up, and why should I?
I have managed already to break the confines of the 9-to-5 office workday. As long as I can find a power supply and a fast internet connection I can work from anywhere, no limits. The only limits are those I impose on myself.
I am not only creating the lifestyle of an internet entrepreneur, but also building a successful business online. This takes a great deal of hard work and perseverance, but I believe the one magical ingredient is passion which can intensify and fuel your online business.
Passion fills me with energy and excitement, gets me up in the morning, and keeps me awake at night. When working on a project that I have total passion for I lose track of time and become absorbed in the task at hand. This passion creates a personal intensity within me and uplifts and inspires me beyond anything I have been able to do before. It increases my performance and enables me to achieve things they I have never dreamed possible. Most importantly, this passion holds the key to both my happiness and to realizing the success of my business.
Let passion be your master, and fuel your greatest work. Doing what you love means that you’re more driven to put in the hours necessary to succeed because there’s nothing in the world you’d rather be doing!
When you channel your passions into something that adds value, solves problems and enriches lives, those passions become even more fulfilling. That’s also a service people will happily pay for.
Many of my readers are bloggers or internet marketers. Let me tell you one unbelievably important thing – When it comes to a work-at-home business model, do what you love and the money will follow. When you ignite the fire inside of yourself, you will inspire others. For those who do what they are passionate about, work does not seem like work at all, it’s kind of play it with monitory benefits.
Remember I was a hobby blogger up until 9 months ago. Everything I’ve achieved has been done in a very small time frame. There’s no magic, well apart from finding your passion.
We all want to be passionate about what we’re doing, to be excited about how we spend our days, to love our lives and make a contribution. We want to live a life where we’re doing what we love.
When choosing your passions, think about what lights your fire right now. It’s your thought of what your life stands for and the contribution you’re wanting to make, whether he be a contribution to yourself personally or too others, maybe even to society perhaps the planet. Your passion is what excites you, what you love doing. So start doing it.
By building a business around your passions:
1. It is going to seem less like ‘work’. There is nothing better than getting paid for something you truly enjoy doing.
2. Passion Allows you to Make a Contribution to this World by sharing what you have learned and what you are passionate about. You could be the person that inspires someone else to reach a level of success and greatness they never thought possible.
3. Passion takes you above and beyond, so you do more than is expected of you going that extra mile which sets you apart from the rest, opening endless opportunities for you.
4. Passion utilises your best talents and skills and you experience a tremendous amount of joy and satisfaction which further fuels your passion.
5. Your passion for doing something will keep returning you to your Big Why over and over again so that you never lose focus of what is most important.
6. When you are passionate about something you love, you want to increase your knowledge and skills in that area and so you get better at doing it. It drives you to learn more, be innovative, and create solutions.
7. It’s time to share your passions with the world and let your soul shine through!
You can decide right here, right now, that you are going to let passion into your life. You can get in touch with the passion that defines you and have an amazing life. You can show the world all you are capable of—all that deep down you know you can be. And, most importantly, you can be happy. You can live every day with zest and vigor. You can love your life.
Once you’re clear on where your passion lies, you may not be clear on how to build a successful business around it. Because you’re so knowledgeable on the subject, you sometimes have a hard time stepping back and seeing all that you have to offer to others who are in need of your wisdom and guidance.
Whatever your passion is, there’s a profitable business model to support it, along with endless ways to pair it with your skills and interests.

Great post Larry. It’s so great to be able to do something everyday that you love and are passionate about. It’s very sad as the majority of people don’t have this and sometimes I think we can take it for granted.
