Understanding that Your Passion is Your Responsibility

They say your passion is your dream, but what if they had said this is your calling....this is your responsibility. How would you have acted from that point on? How much urgency would you have placed behind it? What if instead of asking each other what your passion is or what your purpose is we started asking questions that will begin to plant a seed and expand the way we think. Questions that beg meaningful answers and responses, questions that really dig deep.

I believe in asking questions such as.....What are you interested in? What are you curious about? What excites you when you think about doing it? What is fascinating to you? What do you love to do with your free time? What do you wish you could do with your free time? Who do you love to serve, help, or lift up? What would you do if money wasn't a factor? What is something that you wish you could do more of?

Taking the time to explore these questions and figuring out the answers is your responsibility, because the answers to these questions will lead you right to your passion.  I encourage you to get in the habit of accepting this responsibility that we all have on our lives. I created PrettiPassionate for this very reason. This is your online source for discovering your passion OR figuring out creative and new ways of pursuing things in life WITH passion. We are all on a journey and I believe that it is time to challenge the lives that we've been given with actions toward living the lives that we will create. Let's change the dialogue around what it means to truly live and what it means to be "living the good life".

Now that you know figuring out your passion OR how to purse a passionate life is your responsibility, how much urgency are you willing to place behind it?
