This whole world seems to be screaming \u201cfollow your passion,\u201d but you\u2019re stuck.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a passion.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a one thing that translates into a career path.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a fire in your belly for any certain college major or job offer.<\/p>\n
These past couple of weeks I have had this gut retching feeling.\u00a0 I have thought to myself what is my passion in life? What is my greater purpose than getting a college career, being a part of a sorority and working?\u00a0 There has to be more than that.<\/p>\n
I have been itching to find this purpose, and recently I read a short passage that helped me look for that drive in life.<\/p>\n
Cultivate Curiosity:<\/strong><\/p>\n It explains to look for things that raise questions in your heart.\u00a0 What problem makes you want to twist your brain around a solution?\u00a0 What issues in life make you want to take a stand? Find ideas that cause childlike wonder and fascination.<\/p>\n Cultivate Compassions:<\/strong><\/p>\n What aspect of our world makes your heart hurt? Find compassion in this world that you want to fix or impact. \u00a0Who do you want to serve in this life and what legacy do you want to leave?\u00a0 Then figure out how your skillset fit into these.<\/p>\n Cultivate Competency:<\/strong><\/p>\n What are best at?\u00a0 What can you be better at?\u00a0 When people say to you, \u201cyou\u2019re such a natural,\u201d what are they talking about?\u00a0 Find something that makes you feel at ease and confident.<\/p>\n I took these questions and made lists.\u00a0 I gathered my ideas and found what each section had in common.\u00a0 Everyone has a fire inside them, a passion, something they are good at.\u00a0 Finding that true passion can be hard but when you find it, you\u2019ll know.\u00a0 I hope you all can find your passion in life and stick to it.\u00a0 I am beyond eager to find mine.<\/p>\n I hope you learn. I hope you laugh. I hope you never stop. And remember being fit is always in style.<\/p>\n -Karlee Fowler<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This whole world seems to be screaming \u201cfollow your passion,\u201d but you\u2019re stuck.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a passion.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a one thing that translates into a career path.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have a fire in your belly for any certain college major or job …<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2522,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[154150,154149,3319,20729,3228,77922],"class_list":["post-1031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-cultivate","tag-love-what-you-do","tag-mental-health","tag-passion","tag-wellness","tag-yourself"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1031","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2522"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1031"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1031\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1033,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1031\/revisions\/1033"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1031"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1031"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1031"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
