This Week's Reflection

 

Doing what you love doing - that's what this week's Video is about. And, as I mention the word love, it occurs to me that this is something that we need to explore in more depth over the coming weeks so, as they say, stay tuned!

 

You might be inclined, as some are, to talk about what they love doing as their "passion" or something about which they are passionate. And that's OK - just a different form of words - but let's dwell on passion and passionate for a moment.

 

Being passionate is like being happy. Experiencing passion is like experiencing peace of mind.

 

Like happiness or peace of mind, passion is something that we give to ourselves - after all, from what other source could you find passion!

 

I often remark that some of the early Flow studies were carried out amongst employees on the production lines in the auto industry in Detroit in the 1980s - people doing apparently mind-numbing jobs who we passionate about what they were doing.

 

We choose passion - it is a gift that we give to our all-too-deserving Self.

 

So, whatever you're doing righ now, doing it like you mean it, immerse yourself in the task in hand, play the ball at your feet so to speak, give yourself the gift of being passionate.
