Four Keys To Successful Living
Today's message really hit home for me today and I wanted to share it with you.
1. Face Your Faults
Learn to acknowledge your faults and weaknesses and learn how to use them to your advantage.
2. Let go of your past
a. Forget your failures
You can't change the past, so learn from it and let it go.
b. Forget your successes
Dwelling on your successes tends to make you complacent which stops the learning and leads to failure.
3. Focus on the future
Set goals and focus on achieving them. Ask yourself "where am I going?"
4. Being successful requires determination
Press on! Don't learn how to quit, be determined to reach those goals and to achieve great things.

Lonely Road
Discovering your passion can be lonely road. A challenging exercise of trial and error. It comes from exposing yourself to new things and new ideas. Try, try, try again. Try until that passion presents itself to you. Sometimes that passion is inside of you the whole time yet the blinders are on and those passionate feelings sit dormant.
Discovering your passion can be a lonely road. Others can guide you to new experiences and situations, but no-one can discover it for you. The feeling of passion wants to be discovered, and once it has the world opens up, the clouds part, and all becomes as clear as a cloudless night sky. You clearly know what it is you were meant to do and what it takes to get there. Outside observers notice when you have found it by the twinkle in your eye and the drive and determination of your every being. Your body language and your presence will show the passion that you have. I get excited when I meet someone passionate about their work or passionate about something. It pains me to see passions unrealized. I want everyone to experience such a blissful aspect of self awareness.
When I hold the camera in my hands, I am aware. I know what I am meant to do. I am blissful. I am happy, and I've found my passion. The discovery of your passion doesn't need to be a lonely road, it can be an exciting time of trial and error. We all want to see each other find their true passion. I'm rooting for you to find yours. So I ask you, what is your passion?
