Blog Post: Success Comes From Doing What You Love

“If you want to be successful, it’s just this simple. Know what you are doing. Love what you are doing. And believe in what you are doing.” – Will Rogers

What do you love doing in your spare time?
What tasks makes you lose track of time?
If you had $3M in the bank right now, what work would you do?
If you were trapped on a deserted island with one other person, what would you hope and pray that person would want to talk to you about?
Imagine you were trapped in the mall overnight, what store would you spend the most time in?

That’s a small sampling of the questions we coaches like to ask our clients who have finally decided to listen to that inner voice that says, “I want to do what I love, and this ain’t it!”

Why do you think we like to ask this stuff?  It’s not because we’re trying to advise you to run right out and get a job in the gardening center at Home Depot if you answered, “I like growing roses in my spare time.”  Though, actually there are times when this turns out to be THE dream job.  I heard a story last year about how a man who loved to read history books found a way to monetize his passion by recording audio history books for the visually impaired.  Sometimes it can be a direct line leading from your passion to your work.

However, mostly we ask these kinds of questions because we want you to find the underlying properties and qualities of your passions.  What do those qualities tell you?  Do you have passion for rose gardening because you have a strong nurturing streak that could translate into a satisfying career?  

- “Recruiting is the lifeblood of any program, so you can’t put anything about that…. But it wouldn’t matter who you had here if you didn’t have the right mental attitude and work ethic. You need all those elements to come together to do something, like we are doing.” Pete Carrol
