I watched an Olivier Roland’s video  and I learned good stuff.

We hear every day that it’s important to do a job that fascinates us. When you do a job that fascinates you , you will never work again but if you don’t do that, you will miss your life and so on. We hear that all the time.

To be passionate

 

 

Now, let’s look at it concretely. Look at the people around you and you don’t need to do a deep analysis. You just have to ask yourself this question : « Are the people I know passionate about the work they do ? ». The answer is : « It’s a tiny minority that does that ». There is often a big gap between theory and practice.

I encourage you to dare to realize your dreams. I encourage you to take baby steps forward everyday to live your dreams. Realizing a dream is not just about being fulfilled. From the moment you do a job that your are passionate about, you have automatically and mechanically by a pure leverage effect, bring more values to the world.

Having the skill is very important and we can have people who aren’t passionate about their work but who are very competent. But between 2 people who have the same skill, it’s always the person who is the most passionate who will succeed to transmit the flame, to make you have sparks on your eyes, to make you dream and maybe to motivate you to do a project that you hesitate to do that will change your life.

It’s this passion that will create maximum leverage on the rest of the world and bring something beautiful, new, artistic. It’s important and we need to do something we’re passionate about. I can even say that it’s a duty for the rest of humanity and I will explain why.

Don’t be passionate

 

 

Everyday we see people who are passionate about their work and people who aren’t passionate or who hate their work. When we meet people who aren’t passionate or hate their work, it is felt in each of their gestures, in each of their eyes, in each of their words. Everytime we meet people like that we feel a bit sadness, disappointment and frustration.

These people don’t like their work but the problem is that these people don’t like their work so much that they make us hate this job. We all had teachers at school like that. This teacher who doesn’t like his/her job and perhaps also the subject he/she teaches and the consequence is that the majority of the class hate the job of teacher and the subject he/she teaches (and it’s hard to have a good grade with these teachers). Do you remember those teachers ?

Struggle

 

 

I know that isn’t easy. It’s always difficult for me today but instead of staying with your friends complaining about injustices in your city by drinking alcohol and smoking weed after school or work (yes, I was like that), use this time to take a step towards the realization of your dreams. What’s cool with internet is that we can easily do a lot of things like learning a new skill , get a freelance job online , having a blog, a podcast, a Youtube channel or selling things on Amazon , eBay  or Shopify .

If you hesitate to create your dreams, say to yourself it’s not a question of being happy and being fulfilled. It’s about bringing value to the world, bringing a smile, a spark, an energy to the world.
