We all have things that we're passionate about, yet few of us ever do anything with those passions.

The majority of people get stuck working jobs they hate or pursuing educational goals to gain other people's approval, instead of focusing on their own happiness and passions.

This becomes soul-crushing over time because we know deep down we are not living a life true to ourselves that's aligned with our core values and it's eating us up inside.

When this goes on long enough people become old and bitter because their lives are filled with regret due to fear. Fear of taking a risk, fear of looking stupid, fear of being judged, fear of failure, fear of success, no matter the fear the reason people don't pursue their dreams stems from fear.

Just as our fingerprints are all unique to us, so are our brains, so we must use our unique brains to give life to our unique ideas.

No one in this world thinks exactly the same as you do because no one has the exact same perspective as you do, so it's your job to share your unique perspective with the world.

This doesn't mean just go in and quit your job or drop out of school because that may not be realistic depending on your situation and responsibilities, but you can begin to schedule time every day that you will dedicate to your passion, and if you're not sure what your passion is then use this time to brainstorm and find it.

This means sitting down, cutting out all distractions, and just taking action towards your passion whether that means brainstorming, journaling, researching, learning new skills, launching a website, whatever step you take is you taking action, getting the ball rolling, and that's a win.

When we do this consistently over time we're able to bring our passions to life and this will bring us a sense of meaning and fulfillment since we're the ones who created it.

Our passions don't have to become some huge business either to be deemed successful, having a fun side hustle that we care about is just as rewarding as it still gives us meaning.

This may even make the job we hate less dreadful because now we can view this job as a way to fund our passions, which makes the job become meaningful now as well.

Passion helps to give our lives meaning and meaning is what makes our lives worth living.
