Each one of us, at some point in time, think to ourselves, What is my passion in life? Finding passion is never easy. Many people spend their entire lives finding out what they truly want in life.

As a Life Coach, most of the clients that visit me ask a very similar question and are found in the same dilemma most of the time. I understand it is very arduous to identify your passion in life.

A few years back, a young man visited me. His name was Rahul. He completed his MBA from a renowned institute in the country. Post completing his masters, he got a great package job in a very renowned international company.

Being a part of the firm for two years, he started feeling he did not belong there. He started feeling bothered as if he is missing something in life.

Many days passed, and he could neither work as efficiently as he normally would. Finally, he decided to switch his job, and so he decided to resign from his current position.

As he resigned, he decided to take a break for a few days. It was during this time he decided to visit me for a counselling session.

As we started his counselling session, I discovered a lot of things. He opened about his fears, joys, expectations, and views. Within the first two sessions, I knew what he was going through.

It was a phase that each one of us goes through, but only a few dare to face their fears.

What we realized was that Rahul really wanted to do something for small children’s education. I was quite impressed when he presented his ideas of how he would like to bring the change.

You see, these ideas, these thoughts are what was bothering Rahul while he was working there.

Many times in life, we are too afraid to face our reality or to work towards them. I must say, the session was brilliant. Within two sessions, Rahul knew what we wanted and what not.

As a life coach, I always suggest to my clients to follow their passions. In our career counselling sessions with Rahul, we decided that he should start working on his passion within this break. As he would obviously need income, he will have to continue his job for some time initially.

Within a few days, he and some of his friends started their NGO, where they rented a room to teach poor students. It took a few days for them to spread the word and convince children to study.

After one year of profound hard work, Rahul and his friends had opened their own school. Today, he has a team of individuals working across 10 states providing free classes to poor children.

You see, it is the thing about passion if you follow it with all your heart, you will always succeed. As I look back to clients like Rahul, it gives me immense pleasure.

What is my passion in life?

To live a life of one’s passion is still a dream for many. Passions in life are what keep us going to strive better each day.

A passion is something that you truly want. It does not necessarily have to be what you are doing right now. It can be anything from dancing, singing, painting, coding, programming, or marketing.

Your profession does not have to be your passion. I have seen so many people doing things they are not passionate about. I have also seen so many people who are unable to distinguish between their passion and profession.

If one remains in such a dilemma, one might not even follow their passion ever. Passion is something you like, want, and something that brings you true happiness.

You might try to identify your passion in life to bring satisfaction and happiness. Different people have different passions. Your passion does not need to depend on other people.

Why is it hard for you to identify your passion?

As I had discussed already, only a few people have the courage to identify their passion and work towards it. Most of the clients who visit me have a sense of loss of direction.

They have no clue what they want in life. They think going with the flow is the only option. Well, it isn’t.

In today’s time, it is quite essential to find a passion in life. If you are unable to identify or embrace your passion, here are a few things that can be stopping you:

Afraid to explore

One of the most common reasons that I have observed in people who are unable to identify their passion is that they are too afraid to explore. When it comes to passion, it isn’t something that strikes just right at one time. You have to explore, give time, and try different passions unless you find the right one for yourself. You are not born knowing what you like and whatnot. There are innumerable personalities who explored before finding that spark that grows into a fire. It leads you to glow in your field.

Self Doubt

I have been visited by many clients who have no clarity about their passions. However, I have also met clients who are quite clear about their fervour but are overly doubtful about choosing it. People doubt that the things they are passionate about are more like hobbies and will not get them anywhere in life. I have seen so many people bury their interests and passions deep inside because of this self-doubt or societal pressure. Self-Doubt is the biggest killer of passion. If you truly are passionate about something, no matter how big or small it is, you should always give it a try to follow your passion.

Awry Company

We all know the effect your company and the kind of people you meet and greet have on you. Your company plays a colossal role in building you. If you are surrounded by people who motivate you to strive for better in life, you will earn success. However, if you are surrounded by people who are themselves aimless in life will also make you aimless with time. When we are young, ideas run through our minds all the time. Many times we decide to discuss our ideas with our friends. Now there can be two sides to a coin. On one hand, your friends might love your idea and will encourage you to work towards it. On the other hand, the wrong company will laugh at you and ask you to come out of the glass palace that you have created from your thoughts. It is up to you, who you’d like as friends. In this way, friends and family play a colossal role in letting you find your passion.

Passion requires the right mindset

Passion is something your heart wants. It is an activity that raises your level of excitement and happiness. Many times people forget the essence of passion in life. People start focusing on ways to earn bigger profits from their passion. I’m not saying it is wrong to earn or to change your passion into a profession. However, focusing too much on how to make money from your passion only slides you away from embracing them. The more you start using your passion as a source of income, the sooner you’ll start losing interest in it. It will soon become another job for you. Do not set the wrong mindset for your passions. Follow your passions with a full heart, and you’ll witness the happiness it’ll bring.

Jumping to conclusions

Many people already think of all the conclusions and outcomes their passion would bring. It makes them feel their passion isn’t worth trying. They think of a thing they are passionate about, then consider doing it full-time as a profession. When they compare their input and output, they lose confidence in attaining their dreams. They think of their professions more as a hobby and less than a passion. However, hobbies can become a passion, but not all hobbies are passions.

Lack of self-confidence

We might find the passion we were looking for, but do we have the confidence it takes to follow that passion? Suppose you come up with the idea of following your passion by quitting your job. No one would appreciate your decision. Even your family would be reluctant about your decision. In such situations, if you have the confidence to take a stand for yourself and convince people, only then you can embrace your passion. To identify your passion, you should have the confidence it takes.

Overthinking

Sometimes we do not even realize that the thing we are doing right now can be our profession. We spend hours and days and years trying to find out our passion. In the time we spend figuring out our passions, we miss the signs that were right in front of our faces. Passion isn’t developed in a day or two. It requires time to explore and evolve.

List of Passions

Passions are different for different people. Some might find happiness in simple things, while other passions can be hard to achieve. No matter what your passion is, you should always explore them and work towards them.

How to identify your passions in life?

Identifying passions becomes easy when you dare to dream and imagine. Once you decide to find what you truly desire, life gets easier.

What can you do? How can you find passion? Here are a few things that can help you find your source of happiness:

● Find out what you spend hours researching about

It is human nature. When we get passionate about something, we spend hours to days to even months finding more and more about it. You can read about it for hours, watch videos throughout the night, and even start trying things. Now, when you find yourself doing so, chances are you’re forming a profession for yourself. You don’t have to close your mind here. Keep on exploring more and learning more.

● Ask yourself: Is there something I love doing?

Most of the time, while finding answers to this question, people tend to fight their passions. A hobby is something we all have. It is something we love to do since we were kids. However, we always considered our hobby as just a fun activity and not a passion. If you like to dance, you can do it in your free time, or occasionally. However, if dancing is your passion, you should be participating in shows, or you can start your dance school.

● What makes you lose track of time

Many times in life, we do not even realize how time passes when we are doing something that we love. For example, you spend hours doing a painting. It isn’t because you have a lot of free time or that you need to complete it in a day. It is because you are passionate about it. When you are passionate about something, you do not feel bored or lazy about doing it. I have seen so many people who are passionate about their jobs. They love going to the office and working there. Passion makes you lose track of time.

● If you were financially secure, what would you like to do?

Most of us have passions and are unable to undertake them because of our financial situation. I have so many clients who come to me and say, I wish I had enough money to do this or that. So, if you think you do not know what your passion is, sit silently and think about all the things you could do if you had money. For example, you love travelling, but finance is a barrier. However, it does not mean travelling isn’t your passion. Every time you get this thought of what you could do if you had money, jot it down and fulfil your passions when the time comes.

● Do you feel happy about your current job?

As I had already mentioned, I have seen people who love what they do, and they get so excited while going to work. I have also seen people who while getting ready for the office each day say to themselves, “ Why do I even go there?”

You know the difference now. If something you’re not passionate about becomes your lifestyle, you find it very hard to live a life like that.

● Don’t quit your job immediately

To have a passion as a profession is still a dream for many. However, many people think it is very easy to turn your passion into a profession. Let me tell you, it takes a lot of time, courage, confidence, and hard work to be successful. Many people leave their jobs as yet to fulfil their passions, but the struggle is real. I always suggest people try passion as a side gig first, and if everything goes well, make it a full-time profession. Quitting a job will not help you in any way, and you might even face a financial crisis.

Why is it important to have passion in Life?

We have been talking about how to identify passions and why is it hard to find passion. However, a major facet to be discussed remains, Is it crucial to have a passion in life?

I would say it is highly crucial to have a passion. Even if you do not bother to follow your passion, it is still beneficial to have one to look up to.

Here are the three primary reasons why you need passion in life:

Passion drives you towards the accomplishment of goals

Many people form a monotonous life. Getting up, going to the office, coming back, and following it the next day. If you set goals for yourself, goals that reflect passion, then it gets easier for you to accomplish those goals. Having a goal gives you a purpose to strive hard for. You’ll yourself notice changes in your life.

Passions give your life a sense of purpose

We might be working hard each day to take care of ourselves, our families, and our friends. But does doing all this give you a purpose to live for?
Your passion is something that gives meaning to your life. When you are passionate about something, you feel you need to achieve the purpose of your life. Having a passion is like affirming your value. It is knowing what you are capable of. For example, you may initiate voluntary work, it will give you a sense of purpose when you serve others. You’ll find enjoyment in little things.

It’ll make you an inspiration to others

Having a passion to follow, and then pursuing it successfully will inspire others. Passion is contagious, the more you’ll spread it, the more people will learn the purpose of passion. It will be extremely beneficial for everyone.

Final Thoughts

As a Life Coach, I have always motivated kids, youth, and even grown-ups to try to live life passionately. Everything becomes smooth and easy with a sense of purpose. Finding a genuine passion in life brings eternal happiness to your soul. If you have a purpose, throw some light on it. If you don’t have a purpose yet, explore your options and find the spark that can be turned into a fire of success.

What if I tell you that the secret to living a happy, active, popular, and meaningful life lies in having good communication skills?

Yes! You are reading it correctly.

Communication — Millions of times in our lives, we are corrected for our ways of communicating with people as it plays a vital role in both our personal and professional life. They say that one of the most significant powers a human being can have is the ability to communicate. The skill of effective communication is not the only way that helps us in expressing ourselves and our feelings to others. but, it also has the power to tap new opportunities for an individual.

Many sociologists, philosophers, and psychologists agreed on the fact that communication skills are the reason that can open doors for an individual. On the other hand, it can shut the same doors for the same individual. Be it a king or a beggar, all of them often become victims to vague clarification of the strength of communication skills.
You must be wondering how?

Well, there is always a thin line between good and bad communication. Excellent communication skills refer to the kind of conversation that is meaningful, informational, sensitive, easily understandable, or reliable. And bad communication skills might involve exaggerating topics, not talking to the point, gossip, negative conversations, etc.

How To Build The Strength Of Effective Communication Skills

During my journey as a life coach, I come across many people who face problems and discuss their poorly attended official meetings, conferences, presentations, conflicts with their loved ones, etc. Some of them are so educated and talented but still struggle to face such problems. I used to wonder what is the reason behind their aggressiveness and struggles.

And when I worked in identifying their problems, I figured out that they were struggling to use the strength of good communication skills they have already.As mentioned earlier, communication is that simple word that can either care the way for your whole path or shut all the ways for you to get there. So, Improving communication skills is very important. For Example — An educated man, who is talented, educated, owns a company, has a big project coming up with a big the collaborating agency, and had a task to choose five different looking models for the upcoming fashion shoot with the collaborating agency.

At the time of his presentation, when we showed his models, he stated,” Here I present the fantastic five pieces of beauty created by God. However, the description wanted to get the girls of plus size as well, but I think that models with 0 figure will only fit in the fashion shoot rather than some normal looking pieces of fat’’.

Listening to which the CEO of the big collaborating agency canceled the deal and said, the point you mentioned was good, but the way of mentioning is not at all accepted here. The example mentioned above clearly states the importance of using the right words for communication and how to communicate with people to put the right perspective and context in front of the listener. So, using the strength of good communication skills in the right way is very, very important. But the question that arises here is how to build this strength? Do you want to know the answers?

Points To Build The Strength Of Effective Communication Skills

Self-check –

Excellent communication has no alternative. So, to get it right, it is necessary to ensure that you are ready to communicate the right thing. A smart step is to take a look at your own confidence level, awareness, and expertise on the subject you are going to talk about. It is important to bring the right thought by first preparing yourself through the self-check formula of communication.

Analyze Your Audience –

It is necessary to analyze the audience and ding out who you are about to talk to. They may be from exclusive regions, cultures, or even have different mindsets, so the speaker is required to analyze and check the nature and character of the other personality in the conversation to have healthy and productive communication.

Develop Trust –

In a conversation, when we say or put some statement of trust, it is very important to stick to those words and not change them according to the situations. Situation-friendly decisions can put you into problems and create a bad picture of you and your organization in front of the listener. So, develop trust by always choosing wise offers and statements.

Make The Use Of Right Words –

While having a conversation, it is very important to choose the right words to state your feeling and thought in front of the listen. The wrong usage of words can be the reason for the misinterpretation of your thoughts by the other person in the conversation.

Follow The Art Of Listening –

The nine thoughts to a one-word formula, which I believe in, is the best way to learn and follow the art of listening. In this, one must learn and try to listen to the information provided and then respond to it after comprehending it properly. This seems to be very easy but is actually one of the most difficult tasks of the whole communication process.

It’s Okay To Take A Pause –

Sounds strange, right? But taking pauses between your conversation makes a communication stand out. Sometimes eagerly replying makes us miss some points that might help us to keep the conversation going on productively from your end. So, take a pause and understand the behavior of another one if they are interested in the conversation or not.

Be curious –

Be curious to ask questions. Putting out your queries will not only clear out doubts but also make an effect on a person that you are interested in the conversation.

A Touch Of Humor –

Adding a little humor in your communication skills is like a cherry on the cake. When the touch of entertainment is added to the conversation, it makes it more interesting and engages the other people as well.

Provide Feedback –

It’s always an excellent step to follow if you want to end your conversation on a very productive note. Provide feedback for what you have learned and what is your thought for the same. When we provide such input to the other person in the conversation, it helps them understand the result of their efforts and make them realize that you were actively listening.

The Different Types Of Communication Skills

Communication is an act of sending information or ideas via speech, expressions, visuals, writing, or any other such method. Communication skills are the skills that a sender sends the message and the receiver which is receiving the message.

Are You Still Feeling That Your Problem Needs Resolution?

Being a life coach, I usually see a lot of people facing career issues. And as I am on the mission to mentor 1 million people in many different countries in the next five years, I interacted with 15 thousand different people in 14 countries and now also continually encounter various career problems and career insecurities of people, leading to career counselling.
According to data from the IMF’s October World Economic Outlook, India became the world’s fifth-largest economy last year. When ranked by nominal GDP, the country leapfrogged France and the UK

Besides having a strong economic background compared to many other countries, we have major employment issues that are giving birth to life-taking poverty.
Speaking of the pandemic in 2020, the Coronavirus has affected this financial and economic graph very severely. The companies got shut, universities and schools got closed for around five months straight. Around 40 million people lost their jobs by May 2020.

Situations are becoming worse, and each day many children and adults face career problems due to lack of money and employment opportunities. As a result, people lost their jobs; they don’t have a business to run. Many companies went bankrupt. Many kids lost their hopes; parents are facing problems because their children are not learning anything but sitting at home and using the internet. The glance of a pandemic can be seen in every family nowadays.

Here is his blog today, I will share a recent story of a family who faced many problems with their child’s career and how they took the remedial measures to get the best career counseling Chandigarh sessions to make their child shine.

Career Counselling

Story Of A Mother With Child Facing Career Issues

A few months back, when the pandemic covered the whole world under its shadow, I reached a mother of a 25-year-old boy through my counselling program. She was so depressed due to her child and was convinced by her thoughts of a mother’s failure.

I could hear her voice shivering that day on the phone. Her fear of losing her child was so immense that she was scared of me as her last hope will help her handle her situations. Her boy lost interest in his job and work by sitting at home and now is in depression to get a new job. Her concern was to make him alive in his career path and to make him realize the value of passion, which he had stopped believing in after losing his job due to Corona Pandemic. Read How To Deal With Depression

She was worried about her family as she could see it scattered in the coming time due to one child’s habits and career path.

The woman was herself a professor and had her younger son studying in class 11th. Looking at his elder brother’s pathways, the younger one also started to follow him slowly and steadily according to his age.

Having an aggressive husband, who had a problem of directly reacting to things but not responding. She knew she had to save her family independently.

Even after trying so many emotional tricks, poojas, psychological medicines, she could not get positive results. And after the efforts of around six months, she ended up coming to me to resolve her issues and gave me the title of being her ”Last Hope’.

After listening to her problems, I noticed that she is not clear about the problem she is facing. With that note, I, being a life the coach took it as a mission of helping her out and mentoring her children to shine like a star.

Identification – Root Problem Of The Situation

After listening to her stories, my first step was to identify the root of her problems, which means to find out the birth point of all of the issues.

Career insecurities and career problems are not something that happens to arise suddenly in a child’s mind. Though we genuinely understand the pandemic’s impact on people, here the problem was more of having a child who is not worried about his health, career, who lost the zeal, leading a life with no interests and promoting the pathway for his younger brother.

Listening to the lady’s problems, one thing that was clear at first hand was that- there is an urgent need for career counselling Chandigarh sessions that we provide for the kids to help them out in their career paths.

But also, the need to provide family counselling arose when the root of their problem got identified. Because it’s a holistic approach. The child, as well as the parent, has so many whats and ifs in their behaviour which adds much more stress to the situation. In order to resolve that counselling plays an important role.

Do you want to know what the root of their problem was?

Well, continue reading to know…

As parents, she and her husband tried to keep their kids in control and had some expectations from their children for their careers. From their childhood, the kids were restricted to many things like watching TV and going out to play with friends because of parents’ insecurities.

In one of our counselling sessions, I discovered the 25-year-old boy had always been irritated in his life for no reason. I discovered behind his behavior because his parents always expected the children to become an engineer, get a job, have a secure future, and lead a smooth life.

PS- It is not bad for parents to think and have a plan for their kids. But, it is crucial to understand their interests as well.

And here, the parents skipped this step of considering the child’s preference.

This whole situation resulted in the child who graduated from the right college and got a job. But he never really enjoyed it. And when it got poking and frustrating him up, he started fighting with his own thoughts.

He might have lost his job due to Corona Pandemic, but the thought of struggling again with himself never made him try for another job.

So, you see, how family pressures, social pressures, and pandemics like corona change people’s lives. And they end up being in situations like depression, no vision of the future, lost the zeal, etc. Just like this 25-year-old did.
But, that is not the end…

They say, ‘where there is a will, there is a way’.

The boy also found his way after the fantastic session of career counseling Chandigarh.

Solution Through Career Counselling

After identifying the children’s and parents’ problems, a proper counseling program was arranged for children as well and their parents.

The children were shifted into the career counseling Chandigarh program and parents into a family counseling program where they were taught amazing child handling techniques and parenting techniques that are beneficial for the kids and the parents. Such methods are designed to teach parents the right perspective for handling their children.

Where the actual career counseling took place in 10 different sessions for both the kids.

For the elder child, the counseling was designed to make his life goals alive. The process is known as ‘dead to alive’. It involves various tests and techniques that are performed on the child for enhancing his/her thinking power and build his/her mental immunity.

Through this program, I was successful in teaching the boy significant lessons of life and career. I covered new problems with every new counseling session and resolved it accurately by performing some major life coaching exercises.

The counseling helped him identify his interests and followed his passion for becoming a blogger. Now it’s been five months since he is pursuing his dreams and is leading a happy and cheerful life. He also established a startup by learning the program of Startup Business Blueprints to defeat the Coronavirus financially and has built a great home-based
delivery destination.

His parents learned the value of children and his passion and allowed him to pursue his own dreams rather than push him towards the social standards of being successful.

Conclusion – No matter how hard the situation gets, you must fight. Coronavirus is just a tough time, and it will pass too.
But we are going to last, and we need to build ourselves up. Be it in our career field or life. Be it due to social pressures or family pressures.

You Must Fight Back.

“All The Great Speakers Were Bad Speakers At First”

-Ralph Waldo Emerso

The above statement depicts that everybody starts somewhere. Nobody is born perfect. We learn to speak naturally from our childhood in the form of our mother language. So, speaking skills development starts from the very beginning of a child’s life as speaking is the only way that gives us the ability to communicate efficiently using a language.

However, when speaking shifts from basic to a moderate and then to an advanced level where a person has to learn any second language or a foreign language. Various linguistics stated it to be a very difficult task and said that it cannot be acquired without hard work and effort.

Just like they say, “There is always a wise woman behind a successful man. Similarly, there is always great speaking
skills development training behind a great speaker.”

What Is Speaking?

Speaking is the skill that makes a human different and better than the types of living creatures. It is a complex, subjective, and linguistic ability. A child figures out how to talk through interacting with the individuals around him/her in their local language.

Each ordinary grown-up can talk in his/her local language without exertion and this expertise is a characteristic one. But, speaking in an unknown language isn’t regular and it requires conscious struggle through the entire procedure.

Speaking is a verbal ability that includes words and sounds. It likewise includes:

• Meaning: implication, signification, grammar
• Sociality, Relationship, Affect: formal, casual, slang, turn-taking
• Social Issues: class, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, vernacular
• Execution: pronunciation, projection, speech

Sound Elements: how volume, pitch, pace, and nature of sound supplement/repudiate/supplant words Speaking is a creative aptitude that includes listening ability. Without tuning in, talking is unimaginable and the connection between these two abilities is relating.

Great speakers and linguists state that you should always think before you speak. They encourage the fact of having an ability to quickly analyze and understand the conversation and then share your thoughts with others.

There are many other points that are worth mentioning. Must read them below to always speak effectively:

Be An Active Listener
