I've discovered how to find my passion and I’ve been
living it for more than a decade already. A major component of what I perform
is enabling hundreds of people residing in different parts of the globe to
discover and live their respective passions. These people typically ask me “How do I overcome fear and discover my passion?”
Majority of people imagine the idealistic
picture of just sitting under a tree and suddenly experiencing an epiphany. It
will be definitely fascinating to encounter actual people who discovered their
passions through this manner. I’m sure that my discovery of my passion wasn’t
that simple. Realizing my passion was like a treasure hunt with many scattered
clues or solving a massive jigsaw puzzle with displaced pieces. Whether you
accept it or not, finding your passion is process.
HOW I did it? It was
essentially "getting to know ME".

pleasure in the process as much as you can. Attempt to perform things you
haven’t done before and befriend new people. You will definitely be amazed by
