Passionation

Do you CHOOSE to be PASSIONATE?

DEFINITION; [PASSIONATION] – “the ability to increase or make someone question their passion the ability to be passionate. So, “passionation” is when we share what we are passionate about and it helps someone with their passion”

The above definition is found in an original blog post from a good buddy and coach of mine; AARON DOMMER. He is a daily hustler and I am proud to associate with him often. Please take some time to read the original post, also titled “PASSIONATION”.

NOW, SINCE YOU HAVE TAKEN TIME TO READ HIS POST (EVEN THOUGH YOU PROBABLY HAVE NOT) I wanted to expound on the awesome topic of PASSION.

PASSION is an interesting topic, because it is a personal choice. Yes, one’s PASSION (or lack thereof) is partially determined by their life’s situation and the experiences that they come into contact with. Yet, I personally feel that at the end of the day, a person’s ability to be PASSIONATE or their choice to NOT be PASSIONATE is in fact a personal choice that can only be dictated by that individual.

Or at least that is what I thought, until I read my buddies post on “PASSIONATION”. After reading his thoughts, it sparked me to realize that our ability to be passionate can be malleable or further defined by the inherent PASSION of those with whom we associate.

Wait a second…??? A persons ability to be PASSIONATE and stand in power in what they “do” can be affected by those with whom we associate? WOW! (this is where you start to think deeply about the types of people with whom you choose to associate and affiliate with)

I realize that I am being a bit facetious, but the point I am trying to make is that a person that I currently affiliate and associate with, Aaron Dommer is in fact PASSIONATE about his life and the principles in which he chooses to live. THEREFORE, his “PASSIONATION” (the ability to increase or make someone question their passion and/or ability to be passionate) is very high, and therefore here I am questioning my own PASSION in my life and in what I “do” everyday and I having high hopes that someone who reads this blog post will gain some value and pass along the PASSION that I feel that I bring to the proverbial “table” everyday.

PASSION is; “any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate”. One can be PASSIONATE about anything, and that PASSION can be positive or negative.

Do yourself a favor, and make a distinct decision today to begin associating yourself with the type of network, friends, and associates that CHOOSE to be POSITIVELY PASSIONATE, and go spread some “PASSIONATION”…

ONWARD & UPWARD…
