Discover Your Passion
What interest, passion or desire are you most afraid of admitting to yourself and others?
What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
What do you love about yourself?
What would you do if money was not a concern in your life?
What one thing do you dream about doing that you've never told anyone?
What do you fantasize about doing while driving your car or taking a shower?
Who do you know that's doing something you'd like to do? Describe yourself doing it.
How could you make the world a better place for yourself and others?
Who do you think you are? Have you labeled yourself a mother, student, caregiver? What are the other parts of you?
What did you love when you were a child?
What's stopping you from moving forward with exploring your passion?
List five things that you want. List five things that you're good at. Do you know the difference between them?
What drives you, and what gives you satisfaction?
When you were young, what did you know you would do when you grew up?
How would you like the world to be?
What would you regret not having done if your life was ending?
What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
What do you love about yourself?
What would you do if money was not a concern in your life?
