Words of Wisdom on PassionIn developing our seminars and keynote presentations, we are fortunate to run across many words of wisdom. If you need a refreshing thought, idea, slogan, or profound nugget for an upcoming meeting, presentation, or lunch room bulletin board, take a look at the following words of wisdom on passion. Don't miss our other categories of Words of Wisdom. 
Random Thoughts on PassionThe most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on
fire. "When you set yourself on fire, people love to come
and see you burn. Chose your passion, not your pension. Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without
passion. Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it.
Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble
are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it. Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember,
you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach
for the stars to change the world. A genuine passion is like a mountain stream; it admits
of no impediment; it cannot go backward; it must go forward. Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself
what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world
needs is people who have come alive. Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility,
like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth
a spark. My passions were all gathered together like fingers that
made a fist. Drive is considered aggression today; I knew it then as purpose.
Chase down your passion like it's the last bus of the
night. One person with passion is better than forty people merely
interested. Without passion you don't have energy, and without energy
you have nothing. Every civilization is, among other things, an arrangement
for domesticating the passion and setting them to do useful work. They may forget what you said, but they will never forget
how you made them feel. A great leader's courage to fulfill his vision comes from
passion, not position. Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those
who could hear the music. The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the
more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct
us along the path to its fulfillment. Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing
on what excites you. Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never
cease to grow. Love life, engage in it, give it all you've got. Love
it with a passion, because life truly does give back, many times over,
what you put into it! |
