A great fire burns within me… - Vincent van Gogh (Dutch author)
When a person is passionately in love nothing holds
him or her back. If you have been passionately
in love with someone you’ll know what I mean. No obstacle is insurmountable.
No expense in too high. No distance is too far. You can pay the price for your
love because of one thing – passion.
Passion is to love what coal is to a steam
locomotive. Passion is to a person what petrol is to a vehicle. Passion drives
your engine. Passion moves you from point A to B. Passion gives you a chance to
make a difference.
Without passion we are impotent. Without passion we
stay in limbo. Without passion apathy guides our actions. You can be sure of
one thing – your chance of success is proportional to passion level.
Now, in the same way that a person who is passionately
in love with another can scarcely be restrained, a person who is passionate
about his or her goals can scarce be restrained from accomplishing them. Success
isn’t an option for the passionate person. It is an obligation. It doesn’t matter
how many times you say to him or her that the set goal won’t be a reality because,
for as long as he or she is concerned, it will be a reality.
I plead with you NOT to try chasing a dream you aren’t
passionate about. That is one of the sure paths to failure and nonfulfillment. Instead,
find your passion and pursue it!
