Passion

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009 - 8:38 pm - Sales

The key to real success in life – regardless of what you’re doing – is that you have a passion for it.

Passion makes your job into a career
Passion makes your 80 work week tolerable
Passion makes people think you’re crazy
Passion makes you think you’re crazy
Passion gives you the push to keep on through the Dip
Passion is what gives you the happiness in your job regardless of what others view as success.

I think it is fairly obvious that I have a passion for sales. I eat, breathe, sleep, and talk about sales all day long. I may not have the best closing ratios, or the most profitable clients, but I consider myself successful because I enjoy sales to the point that I do it for the challenge – its not a “job” for me.

What are you passionate for?
Why aren’t you doing more of it?

    Getting laid off was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I now do what I love, I work seven days a week and I never complain. Hell, I don’t even like taking a few hours off.

    Best thing is that my hobbies and what i get paid for coincide. Seems like yours do too.

    It’s all true.

    I’ve never worked so hard at something, and enjoyed it more. When you’re working on your passion, everything that you do is important.

    I’m passionate for inventing characters and sharing their stories with other people. I love sharing my art and trying to get other people to believe in what I create.
