How do You Identify Your Passion?

I discovered what I am passionate about through the GPS Life Journey (GPS).  GPS is a coach-led curriculum that I took several years ago and now teach.  I was asked to answer nine critical questions to help me identify my passions.  Here are a few examples:

  • If you could do anything you wanted to do, what would it be?
  • What are the things that really should be done to improve life?
  • When you are dreaming about the future and what you would like to do “some day,” what is that dream?
  • What things have you done in the past that really excited you? 
The beauty of this process is that it allows you to step back from the demands of the day and begin to get in touch with who we are, think big thoughts and even bigger dreams.
