Zealous
What do you have an active interest in? What are your hobbies? What do you enjoy doing in your downtime? Where would you volunteer? What cause would you donate to? What organizations do you support? The answer to these questions is where your passion lies. Your passion is a byproduct of your purpose. Pursue your passion until your passion pursues you. Be zealous!
Vision
Habakkuk 2:2 “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it.
It seems easy. Get an idea. Write it down. Have a dream. Write it down. Most of us use our phones to help keep us on track, anyway. We make "to do" and grocery lists. We set calendar reminders, and some of us even schedule text messages. Fancy! Then, why don't we prioritize our ideas or our vision? Why don't we invest in ourselves? Why don't we support other visionaries? I'm sure the reasons may vary. However, we should consciously cultivate our ideas. Who knows? They could be an additional income stream and potentially grow into a thriving business. Write the vision!
Motivation
When you wake up in the morning, what motivates you? Is it a personal desire? Is it responsibility? Is it money? Is it your never ending "to do" list? What's your motivation? Motivation is the "why" behind what you do. Does what you "do" affect others? If you cease to "do" it, will there be a void? Some people are motivated by family, the past, expectations, passion, pride and even consequences. Once you understand the "why," it is easier to determine the "how." Maybe you've lost your motivation. You don't feel a strong desire to do anything anymore. Ask yourself, "why did I want to do this in the first place?" The "why" may change over time. You may need a new source of motivation. Find it. As you evolve, so do your desires. It is ok for your desires to change. You live, you grow, and you want different things. Just keep your motivation in mind. Motivation is the driving force to your destiny.
