Passion is not enough
We hear a lot about doing what you’re passionate about. Good advice. Certainly beats doings something you hate. Finding your passion is one thing – and not always as easy as it seems – and sharing your passion with others is quite another.
I’ve come to realise that passion is not enough.
It’s not okay to be passionate and boring, or passionate and rambling, or passionate and incoherent, or passionate and judgemental.
And it’s tragic to be passionate about something that you are incapable of influencing or incompetent at achieving. Sadly, most of us are in that position for one or more of our passions.
