George Lucas, the filmmaker said, "You have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles, and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you.  If you don't have that kind of feeling for what it is you're doing, you'll stop at the first giant hurdle."

For many people, pursuing a passion seems more like wishful thinking. They believe they don't have the luxury of pursuing something they love because they need the immediate payoff of a paycheck today.

The truth is if you don't love what you're doing, you'll soon be replaced by someone who does! 

For every person who is indifferent about their work or relationships, there is someone else who loves what they're doing and is lining up to take your place.  That person's passion will propel them to work harder and longer at the same position. 

Interesting isn't... again it comes down to passion!
