43 Weeks Left: Fishing For Passion

2nd March 2015 by Neera Menon Leave a Comment

I’ve been watching a fishing programme on TV called Robson’s Extreme Fishing.

I absolutely love this programme even though I am not a fisherman [or should I say a fisher-woman].

In fact, I don’t remotely like anything to do with the sport of fishing. Having said that, I’m learning how to fish just watching this programme.

The thing that surprises me is that it’s actually quite a physically tough sport.

Here’s why I love the programme: PASSION. Robson Green’s passion for this sport makes this addictive TV. You can see that this man loves fishing, and he’s been filmed around the world fishing all manner of fish. How cool is it that he gets to do what he loves and gets paid for it?

So what’s fishing got to with goal setting? Whatever goal you set, you need to be sure it is what you really want. When you have passion, it will propel you out of bed in the morning to do whatever you’ve got to do to reach your goal.

But what if you have a goal and feel you have no passion for it? How do you work out what you really want?

Use the following guidelines to focus in on your passion and set new goals around that passion.

  1. If you are one of those people that goes around saying ‘I want to follow my passion but I wish I knew what it is’, you need to:
    1. STOP thinking this way. Otherwise you are wiring your mind to stop finding your passion.
    2. START saying, ‘I have found my passion in life’. This will help your mind to find the answer for you.
  1. Write down ten things that you love to do.
    1. To help you make your list, ask yourself these questions:
      1. If I could do one thing for the rest of my life, what would it be?
      2. What would I do, even if I didn’t get paid to do it?
      3. What makes me feel on fire and in love with life?
  1. What have you always dreamt of doing?
    1. As a child?
    2. What dream have you given up on because you think:
      1. It’s impractical.
      2. You’re afraid you can’t do it.
      3. You’ve not got the money.
      4. You’re afraid to fail.

Do not fall into the trap of thinking that your fears are ‘real’. Just don’t think about them and BE HONEST ABOUT YOUR PASSION.

  1. Sleep on it and let your unconscious mind work it out for you. Before you fall asleep, ask your mind to come up with a goal that you are passionate about. Be sure to have a notepad and pen by your bed, as the answers can come to you at any time during the night.

Passion is the FIRE you need to light under your goal. With it you will overcome all manner of obstacles in your way without wavering or doubting yourself. It will propel you out of bed in the morning. And it will ultimately lead you to hitting your goal.

Hope this helps!
