HOW DO WE KEEP FUELING OUR PASSIONS?

These thought has gone through my mind so many times. I have questioned my self on why I lost interest on so many things that I feel would be a benefit to my life. I know they were because I lost the passion for them but yet; How do we keep fueling our passions?.

To keep the passion burning, I have come up with some features to do so.

1. Move with friends alike who shares the same passion with you: Most times, when you have people around you that share the same mindset and passion with you, you tend to be encouraged to keep going and not look back. But the painful part of it is, many people see life as a competition now, and they don't encourage other like them instead always want to be seen higher and better than the other.

2. Believing in yourself: In a way, believing in your self has a way to fuel your passion. There are so many people with low self esteem that feel they are not good enough for anything which thereby make them lose interest into what they love. The passion die off or end up not being strong as it.

3. Mirror talking: I don't know the best term to give this but what I mean here is, keep time to look at yourself in the mirror and find to have a conversation with yourself on your goals, plans and dreams. If there is no one to encourage you, then you definitely have yourself to do so. You should encourage yourself always and keep saying nice things to yourself.

4. Read, Research and Connect More: You might feel you are the only one in a particular condition or maybe at the edge of loosing interest to a dream because of a certain setback but no, there are many others that have been in the same condition as you are. This is where read, research and connect comes in.

You should get to read and research more about people who have shared the same passion as you maybe for instance playing the guitar or wanting to be a doctor, try to know their story and get to see the struggles they faced as they pursued to the course of their dreams. You would be encouraged on how they overcame certain turbulences which would certainly fuel your passion to drive more to your goal.

Connection is actually one of the most important here as in life we all need someone to succeed. Learn to build a connection with people on the internet who may be in the same situation as you. With this, you get to listen to stories real life and not just some printed text. Also, there are possibilites or chances to see someone who could take you to next level just by building connection.

I believe this is not the only way to fuel your passion. There are definitely more and I would be happy if you would share other ways you think of in the comment session below. Happy first Sunday.
