Imagine turning your passion for business into a business venture, making money doing something you enjoy.
There are many of us who have that entrepreneurial fire in our belly. When the limitations of your “9 to 5” job get too much for you to any long accept the frustrations, your entrepreneurial spirit are telling you it’s time to make a change. And what better place to go than to where your passion for business meet.
When you can no longer cope with holding no passion for your job, it’s time for you to leave your comfort zone at your current job, and take a plunge into the challenging, uncharted waters of entrepreneurship.
We are more effective, more successful and much happier when we are doing things we are passionate about. Unfortunately, too many people lose touch with their passions as they get caught up trying to make ends meet or doing what others expect of them.
Passion is the critical factor in determining business success. Look around you at the parts of your life that you enjoy the most. Think about the products and services that you have the strongest feelings about. What in your life do you care so much about that you want to bring it to the world.
Think about your interests and strengths. Do you love to play video games or do your enthralments lie with fashion or make-up? Do you love music, movies, or sports? Do you spend every minute of your spare time exploring the countryside, reading up on history or baking cakes for your friends?
I spent a little time yesterday with a man that has begun an exciting journey. Like me he is a 50 something, but also similar to me he doesn’t see age as a hindrance to his dreams. He is still inspired by the possibilities awaiting him, and he has taken a big step towards fulfilling a big dream of his.
He said to me ‘I’m sick of driving a bus.’
Ever wondered why some people take a radically new direction in their careers? He had a career, a way of life but got to the point where he needed a change in direction. Something was missing – the fire had gone out and he needed to rediscover a purpose for his life.
He now was taking his passion for entrepreneurship, for creating a business where he saw an opportunity that was currently not being met, around something he loved, motorbikes and automobiles. You couldn’t meet someone more following his heart or highly motivated with a sense of mission. He truly has a passion for business and I have no doubts he’ll succeed.
Many businesses started as the result of someone’s passion and then their drive to make this thing that they love to do the method through which they make money. People who are genuinely passionate about what they do have a strong probability of success because with purpose and passion they can move mountains.
A dream doesn’t drive you; it draws you. It is like a big magnet that pulls you toward itself.
In my mind there could be nothing better than harnessing your greatest passion to realise your potential and build a business around them. Following one’s passion is critical to any entrepreneur. Passion is key for entrepreneurial success. Passion can be fulfilled in many ways and within different occupations or businesses.
Building a business requires a lot of time, money and effort; when you truly enjoy what you do it becomes a great source of energy and inspiration. It’s so important that what you sell and market interests you; trying to motivate yourself to sell something you have no interest in is exponentially harder than being involved in what you love.
Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally. David Frost
When you start up a business built on a genuine passion, magical things can happen. You not only gain immense satisfaction from spending time doing what you love, but that same excitement naturally helps you excite and compel everyone you come across in business – your employees, backers and clients.
When you bring your passion for business to reality imagine the type of life you will live. When you wake up in the morning you choose how you will spend your day and what activities you will engage in. Imagine a life filled with happiness because you are doing exactly what you want to do. Your day will be filled with the people, activities, and events that bring you the most happiness. Not a bad way of living I’m sure you’d agree.
When building an online business, you’re going to need the right training and tools for internet success. It’s like trying to put together a huge jigsaw puzzle but when you bring your passions for business then you have the biggest piece you’re going to need.
From our own experience, and from the many individuals and businesses we’ve trained, we know how challenging it is to start a new business and how many questions need to be answered to get you from square one to where you want to go, but when the business is built around your passions you truly have the magic formula. When it’s not you will generally get stuck somewhere on the path.
I have an intense passion for business mentoring finding it incredibly satisfying helping others make their dreams come true. Once you know what your passions are, then bring them towards the business that will accelerate your life and your dreams into being real.
The most important question you can ask yourself is: “Am I really doing what I want?”
Are you ready to powerfully align with your brilliance, passions and purpose; and grow the business you know in your heart you were born to create?
Are you following your passions? Are you doing what brings you joy?
