Number 1 Passion by Eric Handler
What is your #1 passion in life? Now, imagine what would happen if you incorporated that passion into your life daily. Write down your passion and keep it close to you. Remind yourself of it daily, just like brushing your teeth.

Reading has been my passion all my life and lately I have begun to incorporate it into my daily life by either going to bed reading or taking a day or two to make significant progress into a book. I am still split on whether I prefer the Kindle or the Ipad by my ideal still is a real book. Something quite satisfying about turning a page, feeling the heft of the book lighten as you make deep in-roads into its story and get stamped with new ideas and thoughts (can’t help remembering some of the passages from Freedom by Jonathan Frazen) and touched by the emotions and characteristics of novel protagonists.

Besides my literary passion, my other passion is trying new things and that has transformed very well at my work as I have managed to make mundane tasks more interesting or come at them differently. However, I am constantly stalled by my own insecurity and need to please others and I swallow my ideas, ballooning up with regret, festering inside with an urgent need to vomit out all the negativity. However, I am getting better and I see now that I do not have to react to every situation with emotion especially hurt and anger. I have learned to quiet down my emotional turmoil and hear what the other person is saying and see it from their perspective. Even if I do not agree, I see that people relax once they feel heard. It is a great feeling to make things happen when there is calm in important parts of my life.
