Passion is contextual. What you like now may not be what you like later. Remember how you wanted to be a teacher when you were younger, growing up with teacher parents? Wow, the respect they got. You thought to yourself, “Yeah, that’s what I want to be.” It’s your passion you said.
Then you grew up, you discovered by and large teachers are paid peas for an elephant’s work. Ah, maybe not you told yourself.
Your interest changes all the time through people you meet, work you do, films you watch and books you read. And the challenge is people misread interest for the moment or even an extended period of time as ‘passion’.
Then what happens? You move from one thing to another. Getting frustrated along the way.
