Finding a passion in yourself may seem a bit on the easier side although most people actually it is very hard for them, there are some ways to help finding your passion that much easier. John C. Maxwell said in his article "How to care out your life's passion" these few tips may help you out. The first one is to Listen to yourself, Maxwell said "too many people just go through life's actions and make the same old day decisions". Listen to your heart and don't do what everyone else wants you to do, have passion in the decisions you make and have fun with them too. The second tip is to "give it time" don't just find your passion rather peruse it and that's going to take time, patience is key to everything. The third tip is to "pay the price" Maxwell said "understand that sacrifice and passion go hand in hand" I can say personally that this one is very true, maybe even something small like hanging out with friends, and going to a sports practice, what one are you going to sacrifice? Lastly is "define success for yourself" you don't need to be rich to be successful, being successful to me means being stable financially and happy with what you wake up to do every day of your life, "life is too short to be bored and unfulfilled"
Happiness, courage, sadness, and even confidence, all these things are contagious but just like any type of disease you can control yourself and how it effects you. Good, bad, happy or sad whatever you do is up to you. Confidence is the key to success, if you are a head strong type of person you can achieve almost anything you put your mind to. Vince Lombardi if you didn't know was said to be one of the most successful coaches in the NFL he lead the Green Bay Packers to their first two Super Bowl victories ever. If Lombardi didn't have the confidence he had or have a head strong attitude, he would not be in the NFL hall of fame to this day. He was many assistant coaches and head coaches before he was the Green Bay Packers head coach, he kept his head high with his confidence of being a NFL coach one day and he succeeded. This is which we can all take into prespective and maybe make some changes.
Confidence can play a role in an everyday persons life whether that be saying "Hi" to someone in the hallway on the way to class, or rasing your hand when nobody does when a teacher asks a question. When you send positive vibes and confidence you will receive it. Everyone could work on being confident with themselves, maybe making changes with a friend group or maybe it be to change the way you have an outlook on life. Whatever it may be you predict your future and it all starts with who you hang out with or the people you surround yourself with. As Mr. Daly said in his blog "surround yourself with good people". |
