Chapter 8 – Living Your Passion

 

When you live out your passions, there are many things you need to do with  your attitude and your life in order to be successful. You will be a more  successful individual with life and your passions when you practice these  things.  You can measure success any way that you want to. Success is not  measured by money because anyone can make a lot of money. The goal is  to make a lot of money by living out your passion. When you are working  toward something you are extremely passionate about you will usually be  fortunate enough to make some money. The important thing is that you can  look back on your life and know you did everything you wanted to do and  you have no regrets.

Continuous Improvement

 

As you are living your passion, you will not be putting out the best every  single time. You need to find ways to continuously improve processes that  are slowing you down, causing poor quality, or frustrating you. When you  continue to improve the process, you will do better as time goes by and  begin to see how well you can do. Productivity improves after time once you  find ways to make things better. When you first start off with your passion,  everything may seem in disarray and a mess. You can fix this but it will take  time and trials. You may try something fifteen times before you label a  method as the most productive and quality method.  

 

Action

 

Action needs to be all around you when you are living your passion.

your passion by constant action. 

 

You want to have people on your team that are action oriented also. Don’t  have non-action oriented people work with you. If you have a really  supportive aunt that likes to sit around and talk but not work hard, then you  cannot have her help you with your passion. She may be the person you can      have help you create hype for your endeavor or business but not to take  action. Find a place for her so she can help because you need the support. 

 

Always reward action. Never let action and goal setting go without rewards.  You want to reward everyone helping you and yourself. This doesn’t mean  you need to spend money you don’t have. You can reward someone by  letting them know you appreciate what they are doing for you.
