Any ambitious endeavor pursued without being based on passion is highly likely to fail or be extremely difficult. My blog discusses topics related to the above and is focused on the philosophy of "passion-based learning". I can certainly relate to the author of the above post and I'm glad we share similar perspectives. Wonderful stuff! :) Regards, Amir Ahmad I absolutely LOVE that the first step deals with passion.

I gave up a six-figure Wall Street career (was a stockbroker) to follow my dreams of becoming a motivational speaker, author and pilot. It was scary as hell to walk away but looking back, I have to knock on wood and say that the universe continues to provide for me, even during lean times. Money and opportunities always seemed to come to me at just the right time. In my presentations, I use passion as part of my talk to emphasize the power of following what you truly want to do. I developed the HEAR Principle where H means HAVE A PASSION, E means ENTERTAIN THE POSSIBILITIES, A means either take ACTION or be AUTHENTIC and finally R means REMEMBERING WHO HELPED YOU. Having a strong passion will get you through some of the obstacles on the way becuase otherwise what will you do the moment you hit the first obstacle? If you don't have a passion to fuel you through tough times, how will you survive? Thanks for sharing this story - it was GREAT. I look forward to the second part of our interview next week at Adversity University. It's a great opportunity for people to really get to know you and put a personal face to this blog. :) John:

I'd much rather risk failing in something I love than guarantee regret doing something I don't. Success Built to Last says it best: "All you have is your personal capital; your talents, skills, relationships, and enthusiasm. Cultivate your capacity to be fully alive in your work because doing something that matters is a dream worth your life."
