Unleashing the power of passion
Good morning fam:
I hope you are all having a beautiful beginning to your new day.
Here is a excerpt from The Maxwell Daily reader which I have and thought might be helpful to the #TTAfam #TTTVIP
By John Maxwell | May 21, 2012
"One of my roles as a motivational teacher is to try to help people reach their potential. For years, I tried to inspire passion in audiences by going about it the wrong way. I used to tell people about what made me passionate, what made me want to get out and do my best. But I could see that it wasn’t having the effect I desired – people just didn’t respond. I couldn’t ignite others’ passion by sharing my own. I decided to change my focus. Instead of sharing my passion, I started helping others discover their passion. To do that, I ask these questions:
  • What do you sing about?
  • What do you cry about?
  • What do you dream about?
The first two questions speak to what touches you at a deep level today. The third answers what will bring you fulfillment tomorrow. The answers to these questions can often help people discover their true passion.
While everybody can possess passion, not everyone takes the time to discover it. And that’s a shame. Passion is fuel for the will. Passion turns your have-to’s into want-to’s. What we accomplish in life is based less on what we want and more on how much we want it. The secret to willpower is what someone once called wantpower. People who want something enough usually find the willpower to achieve it.
You can’t help people become winners unless they want to win. Champions become champions from within, not from without."
Along with a quote by him. "Sometimes I hear people talk about discipline of self and I think, if you don't have passion, I might discipline myself for a week or two but only passion will hold me steady." John C. Maxwell
Who would be willing to comment on these three questions with me?
