Misconception of Passion/The Root of Patience

Misconception of Passion:

The mistake that we make is that we define passion to be the ‘thing’ we’re interested in. So we’ll say stuff like ‘my passion is music’, or ‘my passion is business”. But that’s not what passion is. We confuse passion to be the ‘interest’, when in fact they’re two separate entities. Passion is a capacity that we’re all born with. So when people say they want to ‘find or discover their passion’, what they’re really saying is they want to find the interest that will ignite the passion laying dormant inside them. So keep that in mind, when you begin the journey to discover what it is you’re passionate about.

The Root of Patience

We believe that patience is the ability to wait, but I think its deeper than that. Patience comes from the Latin word ‘pati’, which means to suffer or endure. So patience isn’t just an ability to wait, it’s an ability to suffer. Knowing that something is for you, and having to suffer everyday without it until its finally yours. So no wonder patience is a virtue not possessed by many, because it takes strength, hope and determination.
