Dear friend,
What is passion? Passion is an intense feeling - a strong
enthusiasm for something. Humans have a basic, natural need for passion
– it’s the spark to the fire that makes living worthwhile.
It drives us forward to experience more joy in our work, our pastimes
and our relationships.
Why is it important? Well, imagine a life without it....Imagine
if John Lennon, Tina Turner or Sinead O’Connor had no passion for
their music and singing? What if Martin Luther King or Mother Theresa
had no passion? Ghandi, Muhammad Ali, Oprah, Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci,
President Obama, Richard Branson, Ranulph Fiennes, J. R. Tolkien, Nelson
Mandela or Robin Williams?
How about if Fire Fighters had no passion, Artists, Eco Warriors, Doctors,
Scientists, Entertainers, Explorers, Athletes, Teachers, Parents, Partners,
Friends, Family and Children? What kind of world would it be without Passion?
Passion is important
because......“Great Things Happen When People are Passionate!”
New Things! Exciting Things! Passionate People MAKE A DIFFERENCE In The
Lives of Others and They Feel Truly Alive.
Now here is a startling statistic! “4 out of 5 people are
not passionate about their work”. *Harris Interactive study January
2005
That’s only 20% of people today are happy, passionate and engaged
in their daily work and occupations. When you think...... we spend most
of our hours in some form of work or pastime - don’t you think it
would be worth being passionate and alive during that time? Now, not only
is that statistic startling, it also begs a bigger question......Why
is it that 80% of people are not passionate? Simple answer: They
are not doing things they LOVE!
Many are stuck in the survival cycle of having to do a job they don’t
like, just to pay the bills. Others are just working away, stuck in a
‘comfortable rut’. Over the years, they have dutifully responded
to the expectations and needs of others, doing what they think they ‘ought
to’ do. They’ve lost track of their own identity – they
became Mom or Dad instead of John or Mary – they have forgotten
who they are, what they stand for and how much fun they were going to
have as they lived their wonderful future. Often they find that they are
no longer sure what their passions really are. They find themselves feeling
dissatisfied and un-fulfilled and somewhere deep inside they ‘sense’
that......“There must be more to life than this” OR
“I can be more than this”
That vague dissatisfaction, that ‘sense’ that there should
be more, arises from unmet needs - innate human needs for Passion, Having
A Purpose, Being Valued and Making A Difference. Most people are not aware
of these needs on a conscious level; they only feel the effect of them
not being met.
The more you ignore your passions, the more unhappy you will become.
Of the 80% of the population who are not living passionate lives, there
appear to be two camps: those who know what they are passionate about
but aren’t living it, and those who don’t know what they are
passionate about at all.
Those in the first camp....believe that they can't do what they
love because they have to earn a living.
Those in the second camp.....can’t live with passion because
they don’t know what they are passionate about.
This is the single biggest block to a fulfilling life that most people
do not spend any real time thinking about...they accept what happens ‘to’
them instead of identifying what they are passionate about and going and
getting it.
Your passions are the keys to your purpose and destiny. The more passionate
your life, the more closely your life is aligned with your personal destiny.
Your passions, your gifts and your talents are all clues to guide you
toward the reason you are here.
So, How do you get more Passion?
“The happiest people on our planet love their lives ....because
they choose to do what they love!” Did you miss it? It’s easily
done because it is so simple....read it again... The happiest people on
our planet love their lives because they choose to do what they love!
In order to choose what they love to do, Successful People first
had to figure out ‘what’ they loved most.
Think about it! Successful people all think and act in similar ways. They
seem to really know where they are going. They seem to know exactly why
they are doing what they are doing And they seem to be so full of life!
So full of passion for their lives! They are energised. They exude happiness,
confidence and compassion for others. Successful people donate more to
charity, pay more taxes and do more of what they love to do. Successful
people have a passion for living, achieving and sharing with others.
This is no coincidence! Successful people, happy people,
all over the planet, share similarities in how they think and what they
do. The good news is...Anyone can learn the steps and habits of the successful.
You can learn to be more successful at everything you do...... and it
all starts with the heart!
Where do you look for passion?
There is only one place to look for your passions and that is..........Within
yourself!
“Start with your heart...the rest will fall into line just as it
is supposed to!” The Passion Man
Here’s a question to ponder as you started….What do
you want? And I mean......What Do You REALLY, REALLY want? Deep in Your
Heart. If money was no object and there were no barriers.
OK, so that’s a pretty big question (literally!). Actually, it’s
the Ultimate Question. What do you want – really? A Luxurious Lifestyle,
Connection with your God, Loving Relationships, to Make a Difference in
the World, to be Remembered for Something Great? It’s only by going
outside of what you believe to be possible today that you will access
your true desires for tomorrow.
Asking ‘What do I want?’ is a powerful way to kick-start your
brain into exploring how best to live the rest of your life. The more
you think on this question, the more will come to light from your subconscious,
so don’t assume that your first answers are the right ones. Use
The Power of Persistence and Keep asking this powerful
‘What do I want?’ question, when you get an answer persist
by asking this powerful question ... “and what will that
give me? ”, Persist by delving deeper with the
same questions each time.....and you will strike gold!
A story that comes to mind when I urge you to keep going, to seek expert
assistance (as you are doing by reading this report!) and ask the deeper
questions is this:
As a young man R.U. Darby (before he became one of the most successful
sales people in the US) learned a major lesson about ‘persistence’
and using experts in their field when seeking the answer.
His uncle was caught by the gold fever in the Colorado gold rush days.
He had never heard the saying that more gold has been mined from the brains
of men than has ever been taken from the earth. He staked a claim and
together with R.U. started digging. It was hard going yet his lust for
gold was definate. After weeks a hard digging he was rewarded with a find.
He realised he needed machinery to bring the gold out. He enrolled his
relatives to finance the project and went back to work. The find looked
like one of the richest in Colorado, a few more loads and he would be
out of debt and into large profits. He drilled on. Very quickly the vein
dried up. They drilled and drilled to no avail. Finally he decided to
quit and sold the machinery for a few hundred bucks to a junk man. The
junk man called in a mining engineer to do a little calculating
and he advised that the project failed because the owners were not familiar
with ‘fault lines’. The expert engineer calculated correctly
(the junk man mined millions of dollars worth of gold from the mine) that
the vein would be found just 3 feet from where Darby
had stopped drilling. Had Darby persisted he may have picked up the vein
again. Had he persisted AND used expert help he would
surely have profited immensly.
I offer you a ‘mining engineer’ as you seek your ‘Gold’
Here are The Passion Man’s 4 Steps to Success that
will support you as you go forward into living with passion:
1. Get Clear.
2. Get Emotion.
3. Get Active.
4. Be Grateful.
Let’s go deeper into the first step just now and when you
want the full report you can get it

LOOK FOR THE GREEN ARROW!
Step 1: Get
Clear: This is all about taking the time to really find out what
it is you REALLY want in your life.
WHO you want to be. What you want to do. What you want to have.
I cannot tell you....HOW BIG THIS IS!
“You cannot create the life you want until you get clear
on the life you want to create!” The Passion Man
When you really get this at the deepest level AND you start to put it
into practice your life WILL change for the better! Most people drift
through life waiting for something to turn up and being buffeted by what’
life’ throws at them while they wait. This is a pretty uncomfortable
place to be. Imagine a yacht (your life) at sea....without a
rudder, at the mercy of the elements. Without an effective steering system
the yacht WILL founder sooner or later and at the very
least it will be a danger to other shipping! Even with sails up (your
skills) or an engine running (your energy & enthusiasm) the yacht
still has no control over where it is going. The sails
will catch whatever gust of wind blows – even if you know how to
sail – you will still be blown all over the place!
What you need is a way of steering your boat. Getting clear on ‘What’
you want is the same as fitting a rudder to your yacht. Imagine
how you would feel after so long being directionless to then
suddenly have the control to steer you exactly where you want to go? “With
a rudder – i.e. getting clear - you can really harness your skills,
your energy and enthusiasm to get you to where you want to be quickly,
with focused energy and creative action.”
The single best way I have found to get crystal clear on what you
really want in your life is to take “The Passion Test” –
originally a New York Times best selling book written by Janet Bray Attwood
and Chris Attwood and now available as an online course or taken1-2-1

“The Passion Man” Foley.

Top tip:
Write down your passions! Recording your passions and
regularly referencing them will significantly increase your chances of
success if for no other reason than you are clear and focused on what
you want!
Step 2: Get Emotion:
‘Get emotion’ is really connecting with your ‘WHY’.
Why you want what you want in your life. This is the single biggest driver
for getting anything you want in your life!
Step 3: Get Active: From the first small
step to taking MASSIVE ACTION, Getting ‘Active’
is the next key step to a passionate and successful life.
Step 4: Be Grateful:
Tony Robbins interviewed one of the greatest investors of our time - billionaire
Sir John Templeton. When Tony asked Sir John to “identify the one
major factor in his success and happiness” Sir
John said “Gratitude”. He saw no conflict
between financial and spiritual endeavour and made substantial contributions
to the pursuit of “explorations into the nature of love, gratitude,
forgiveness, and creativity.”
The Passion Test covers step 1 and 2 of these 4
Steps to Success and is the key factor in choosing to live a
