Passion

It is no secret that I am dissatisfied at work. I am under utilized and bored much of the time.


I read this article on finding your passion. It contains a useful exercise in determining where your passion lies (not that I need it because I know where I want to be, I just don't know how to get there yet)

1. I like writing. In fact, I love writing
2. As a kid, I sought out people to help and spent a lot of my time trying to make people feel better about themselves. I picked up the kids that were being bullied and defended them. Then sat with them while they cried and tried to make them feel better.
3. I love to read non-fiction. Not much for a fluffy fairytale (let's not set ourselves up for disappointment), I like to learn. So I spend my time reading. I am drawn to psychology, health-related blogs and cooking.
4. I am never bored talking to people about things that really matter - poverty, environmental issues, equality, wholistic health.
5. I have a very small tribe. I have one friend who truly understands me and my cousin. My sister tries to but she struggles to understand the softness inside me

So, now I need to formulate a plan so I can make money writing about all the things that interest me.
