September 7th, 2009 FIND YOUR PASSION "You know you are on the road to success if you would do your job, and not be paid for it.” A quote by Oprah Winfrey. This quote may sound nuts to many however I remember my father, God rest his soul, saying to me, “find what you love to do and have a passion for, don’t just find a career based on the kind of money you can make.” He would tell me that it’s no way to live if you are getting up every morning hating what you do for a living, regardless of the money you are making or not making. Your career should be your passion, something you look forward to each morning, something that satisfies you. How many of us have chosen careers based on the money we could make and then you start doing said career and are miserable? Maybe you spent 4 or more years in college to get your degree for said career and realize it just isn’t your passion? How many of us have chosen careers simply because we felt it was the safest choice? Or you chose your career based on the expectations of your family? Drop me a line to let me know your thoughts on my "It's a Wonderful Life" column...
