Well.. this is good article. But, in a nutshell what Elena has asked is Trillion or perhaps zillion dollar questions - Can a person survive [ in today's ' Profit over People ' and ' Golbalized ' world where technology is killing God knows how many jobs and you are competing God knows with how many people across Globe ] by doing just what he is passionate about i.e. Reading, Writing, Learning and Teaching Music / Painting etc. etc. ? My commonsense tells me ' NO ' . I need to pay my bills right here in this Universe and not waste my time, money, energy in dwelling about the Parallel Universe or even about what exactly my Passion is !!! At the end of the day ' Money Talks ' !! I have to devote my time, money, energy to hone my skills which has demand in mkt and which can yield me decent earning - as simple as it is !! Thanks, - Ishan

Thanks for the simplicity in the article with so much of depth. Loved the one on commitment. A simple use of a word can make such a big difference...the one on 'and' connects and 'but' separates. Wonderful article indeed. Educative and well written. Thanks.

And if my passion is just getting up late, sitting in the garden, watching the sky, being away from people and crowds, walking by the sea, reading a book, sketching without thinking if you can sell it or not... Is it possible to survive in this world doing just this if you are not a pensioner yet and don't have a big bank account?

The point on integrity resonated with me. I needed this today, thank you. I'm one of those moms who often says yes to everything in order to be "helpful" to organizations and people. I am learning (slowly, it seems) that I compromise my integrity every time I say yes, get overwhelmed, then break my commitment because it's all too much. I say yes to be helpful because I don't know what matters most to me. Yet. I am determined to honor myself after reading this, and clarify my passions. Great article.

Let Go, Let God. My computer got stuck I had to press; ctrl, alt, and delete. Whenever you feel stuck, take control, alternate your plan and delete negativity. have a bless day.

Thought this was light weight. Promised to wade in but never did. It also left out any significant comment about "getting to clarity"

Absolutely awesome article.

that report with the 9 interviews blew my mind.
I especially liked the interview with Dr. Stephen Covey.

I love the bit in your article where you say - 'when you're living life truly aligned with your passions, persistance is not hard.' This is what breaks down the challenges and obstacles we all face sometimes and makes them surmountable. Thanks for the article.
