Unpackage Your Passion

I thought I was a writer. I was wrong. Are you stuffing your verb into the wrong noun, too?

Updated:

I have a hypothesis:

The problem with following your passion isn’t the passion part. It’s the package.

You’re working within a generic label (writer, coach, consultant) without understanding the unique, underlying source that makes you passionate about it in the first place.

I just realized I’ve been doing this for a decade. Here’s what I finally figured out, delivered in 12 slides instead of my usual 2,000-word posts.

The format is part of the experiment. Let’s see if it proves or disproves my hypothesis.
