Motivational Monday ~ Stress or Passion

Passion is a drive that is unfaltering, Dorie, otherwise it is something done to pass the time and we only have so many rotations before the final time clock is punched. Not me, by any means! Rod Stewart sings a song about passion...

It is important to identify whether it is stress or passion that is driving our lives.  If we can, we ought to ditch those activities that are stressful.  I know recently, things I  once found passionate about, were now more stressful. Sometimes we grow away from things, and need to seek new adventures.

CONGRATULATIONS Dorie, on having this blog FEATURED in the Old Farts Club group!  

Good morning Dorie - the two can be confused in some peoples mind especially watching someone with passion.  But that person is not focused on stress.

I like many of Teddy's quotes too Dorie. I remember many years ago when I worked for an absolutely AWFUL person (UGH) how there was no way to have passion in my job because of all the stress involved!

Good morning Dorie Dillard Austin TX Did you know the origins of the word passion? I looked it up years ago during Lent and learned passion meant to suffer. 

Hello Dorie - some quotes speak to you and, of course, some authors do as well.  It can be quite special when you "find" such things.  

Hi Dorie,
Working at something we are passionate about isn't work at all, is it? As they say, time flies when you're having fun!

Hello Dorie Dillard Austin TX, I just can't imagine working in a job  I'm not passionate about. We're all wired differently, some people's passion can cause stress in others.

Loving what you do is not hard work, It is passion. Love your quote Dorie Dillard Austin TX
