Passion






“It’s one thing to suffer and be a victim; it’s an entirely different thing to be willing to suffer for a cause and become a victor.
“Even though it has become popular to define passion as deep or romantic love, the real meaning is being willing to suffer for what you love. When we discover what we are willing to pay a price for, we discover our life’s mission and purpose.”
If passion is simply what makes you happy, you’ll quit doing it when it gets tough, when it becomes too risky, when you’re ignored and mocked.
Your true passion is what you’re willing to do if it kills you.
What you stick with even when it’s excruciating. When it’s risky.
The things you do because you know they’re right. Because you know they’ll make a profound difference.
The things that simmer in the deepest parts of your soul — far beyond what’s fun or what feels good.
