Discover Your Hidden Passion

Chapter 1 Introduction

What is your dream? Discover and connect to your passion.

What are you truly passionate about? Sometimes it’s hard to know for sure. You may even feel like you have no true passion in life. Other times you think you know your passion, but when you achieve it, there’s something lacking and it doesn’t feel quite right, as enjoyable as you originally thought.

For instance, you may love to watch figure skating. You might even say that watching ice skating championships on TV is your passion. Then you take a few ice skating lessons and you try go skating whenever you can. But somehow doing it isn’t as good as watching it. 


Perhaps it’s more than just the skating that you like. There is also the costumes and the music. Or perhaps what you like best is the formal hairstyles and makeup. In fact, you may even enjoy something like the ballet for its music, costumes, and physical movements. To connect to your true passion, first you have to learn about yourself.
