62 Things To Be Passionate About: What Are You Passionate About?
It seems to you that everyone around you has found their passion. But you, on the other hand, are paralyzed.
Maybe you’re not sure what your passion is. Maybe you ask yourself if you’re even meant to do something on Earth. Or maybe you have so many interests that you don’t know what to focus on.
If you can relate to any of the above, know that I’ve been through all. For a long time, I was afraid that I’ll end up living a purposeless life. I hoped that someday, my passion will fall into my lap.
What I didn’t know back then that nobody will come to rescue me. It was all up to me. Here’s what else I have realized…
Passions are not marriage contracts. It’s actually better when you diversify your source of fulfillment and derive meaning from different areas, hobbies, interests, passions, and purposes.
The passions can also change as you age since we play different roles at different times in life. So we can shift our priorities and focus on what’s important at a particular time in life. But it’s important that whatever you do, do the best you can. That’s the essence of being a really passionate person. It’s more important to generate passion rather than wait for passion to knock at your door.
So with that said, here’s the list of passions you can pursue if you’re confused or lack enthusiasm in life. Notice which of these examples of passions create a spark in you.
