Living with Passion and Soul

Your purpose in life is to live with passion and choice and soul. Sounds easy, right?

Well, let's unpick this a bit to see how. There are lots of different areas in our lives. So, does this mean your hobbies? Your relationships? Your recreation? Your work?

Hobbies are not so hard, most people do hobbies that are aligned with their soul because, why bother otherwise? It's a hobby, totally optional and done for fun. So you like to quilt. Or garden. Or play the flute. It's your happy place, when time flows, and you enjoy it. You doing it with passion and choice and soul.

But where do you spend the most time? Where do you put the most productive effort? I would be picking that it is at work. So, how do you live a life of passion and soul at work? This is the essential question I think. And there are several different strategies, that fall basically into the following categories:

1. Make your current job better

2. Change jobs to a better one

3. Start your own business

4. Do things out of work hours that compensates for lack of soul in your job

So, I think each of these deserves a bit of investigation, and in the next few blog posts I'll dive a bit deeper into each.
