7200
02:27
that would be wonderful yes please I  want to know what my real passion is
15
147600
7380
02:37
how many times have you been told  to find your passion how often  
16
157740
4560
02:42
have you been asked what you are passionate about
17
162300
2460
02:46
wow many times people always ask me Dad  and I really don't know what to answer
18
166980
7020
02:57
we are often told to pursue our passions  in our professional and personal lives
19
177180
7260
03:06
we've all heard the saying find a job you  love and you'll never work a day in your life  
20
186900
5520
03:13
but that's easier it's sad than the home  passion doesn't really work that way  
21
193260
5760
03:19
before you can pursue your passions you  need to discover what your passions are  
22
199020
5700
03:26
you'll likely have to work many days in many ways  to discover the work that Taps into your passion
23
206580
7740
03:36
keep in mind that finding your passions isn't  a one-time process that happens in a single day
24
216480
7200
03:46
our passions may change throughout  your whole life that's okay don't worry
25
226080
7380
03:55
the first thing you have to do to find your  passion is look for the high points in your day
26
235740
7500
04:05
there might be a certain day of the week or time  of the day you look forward to for some reason
27
245580
7200
04:15
maybe it's a specific meeting task or time you've  set aside you might also notice certain surprises  
28
255660
8520
04:24
or unexpected times that end up being the  best part of your day attention to both
29
264180
8640
04:35
significant and insignificant things that  you could consider to be the peak of your day
30
275160
6960
04:45
also pay attention to what you spend  your time and money on it's important
31
285480
6780
04:55
we tend to focus our resources on things that  are meaningful to us including time and money
32
295080
7440
05:04
for example you can look at your credit card bill  
33
304920
3360
05:08
or bank statements and see  if there are any attempts
34
308280
3960
05:14
look at the topics of books magazines films  or podcasts you consume you'll find out soon
35
314880
7620
05:24
recognize if there is a particular gender subject  
36
324780
4140
05:28
or attempt at your hobbies  and interests have in common
37
328920
3480
05:34
something that worked for me was considered  topics you love to teach or talk about with others
38
334740
7740
05:44
consider your interactions with others what  types of conversations do you enjoy the most
39
344640
6660
05:54
do you find yourself particularly animated  when talking about a specific subject
40
354540
6720
06:04
it might also be helpful to consider if there are  any tasks or topics you tend to teach others about  
41
364140
7620
06:13
also think about your strengths identify  your strengths to find your passion
42
373680
7140
06:23
you might have a natural skill that makes you  
43
383520
3240
06:26
feel confident and motivated  when completing certain tasks
44
386760
4140
06:33
you can also explore career paths once  you've identified a few areas of Interest
45
393540
7680
06:43
spend time exploring different jobs  you can search that information online
46
403620
6600
06:53
yeah I know what you're thinking but I'm not  looking for a job yet but let me explain it to you
47
413280
7260
07:03
the thing is that reading job descriptions might  help you find roles that you tend to be drawn to
48
423180
7140
07:12
reading about certain tasks or responsibility that  sounds interesting might also help you with your  
49
432960
7440
07:20
research if you've discovered that your passion  is not something you want to pursue as a career
50
440400
9780
07:32
you can still use what you've learned  to guide your job search for example
51
452700
6900
07:42
if you've noticed you are passionate about  spending time at home with your family
52
462600
7380
07:52
you can search for jobs with schedules  that allow for that do you understand
53
472440
6600
08:02
if you still don't know how to find your real  passion then you can brainstorm it always works
54
482220
7320
08:12
I mean if nothing comes to mind right away as  you're asking yourself how to find your passion
55
492060
7140
08:21
get out a sheet of paper and start writing down  ideas this doesn't need to be an organized list
56
501780
8040
08:31
it can simply be a paper full of random notes  or even doodles and why do I tell you to do that
57
511920
7500
08:41
Studies have shown that writing things down  on paper points to better memory recall  
58
521760
6960
08:48
try it or you can also ask around there  are likely people you admire in life
59
528720
9720
09:01
and there are things about them that  you would like to replicate in yourself  
60
541320
4560
09:06
go to them if possible
61
546840
1560
09:10
and pick their brain see how they landed  where they currently are and whether they  
62
550800
6360
09:17
feel they've discovered their passion but no  matter what never quit trying new things it's  
63
557160
8460
09:25
possible that you won't be able to find your  passion at first however if you give up after  
64
565620
7260
09:32
a few days you're sure to fail keep trying and  you'll find it eventually perhaps you thought  
65
572880
9360
09:42
you found your passion but discovered  several months on that it wasn't for you
66
582240
5760
09:50
start over again and find a new passion  there may be more than one passion in  
67
590100
6180
09:56
your lifetime so explore all the possibilities  the important thing is that you come down and  
68
596280
7500
10:03
relax don't rush to find your passion it will  come soon thank you that you've helped me a lot  
69
603780
9360
