Passion. We all have it, we need to use it.

“Passion. Everyone has passion, but they just have to know how to ignite their own passion inside of them to make a difference.” – Trey Mogenson Former Nebraska State FFA Officer. Everyone needs passion. It is the most important character trait in my opinion. Passion helps you enjoy your hobby or activity. Passion makes you want to help get others involved. It also makes you and others achieve more under one common goal together as one.

How does passion help you enjoy your hobby or activity? Well first off when you have passion you enjoy what you are doing. It is something you don’t complain about when you get up to morning to go to your job or hobby. When you like the activity or job you will be good at it and do the job well and also enjoy it. Passion ignites a fire that makes you like what you do and not be a struggle to get out of bed in the mornings to go do what you need to do. Passion shows who you are and what you believe in. However passion is making yourself enjoy the hobby, job or activity. Passion can also make others want to join you in you hobby, job or activity.

If you enjoy what you are doing it will rub off on others and make them want to join in on the fun. Passionate people are generally great leaders. Being passionate about something shows that you truly believe in making something better and doing something because, not only do you love what you do but you want to do it. When you are passionate it makes the thing you are doing easier to do. If you hate a class or thing negatively about the class chances are you are not going to do as well as you would if you were passionate about getting your homework done. An example of a very passionate leader is Martin Luther King He had great passion to make everyone equal. He was able to get many things done in a very short lifetime. Being so passionate made him a great leader. Finally, passion is something we all have. We just have to find the passion inside ourselves and use it to get others and ourselves more involved. You just need to find your passion, feed it and use it.

Passion helps make you and others achieve more. When a group of people are passionate about one common goal, more is accomplished. If a basketball team decided that their goal was to win a State Championship they would all have to have passion to achieve this goal. It is a lot easier to win a State Championship with a team rather than just one person. By being a passionate person you will get more involved. You will get more done. Passion helps achieve one common goal together and do the job well. By being passionate by what you are doing it will spin off you to make others want to be involved. People can see the passion ignited inside of you. You just need to show it.

You can be passionate about anything. It could be FFA, a sport, school, art, drama, mock trial, showing livestock. We all have passion. You just need to use it. Hobbies, jobs and activities will be more enjoyable. Others will want to join you in your hobby, job or activity. Lastly, passion will make others be able to achieve one common goal together as one.
