A friend asked me about my blog a couple of days ago and it got me thinking.  I had let this go.  Not just the blog, but the sense of joy that comes with discovering my purpose and going on adventures.

What I have a zeal for is delicious, unique, flavorful foods, travel and giving back.  What do I do with this?  I’m reading a book called Unfu*k Yourself: Get out of your Head and into your Life written by Gary John Bishop.  I’m taking the time to ponder over this excerpt from the book – “You’ll realize that when you’re willing to do what it takes, nothing else matters.  You won’t put off the things you’re truly willing to do.  You won’t neglect the responsibilities you took on because you will feel the strong sense of willingness to do them.”

The thoughts that come soon after reading this in conjunction with a life of purpose and adventure…  Am I willing to do what it takes?  What it takes to set myself up to travel for a year…

What it takes to quit my job (if that’s the answer)… What it takes to get paid to travel and blog… What it takes to live a life of service to others… What it takes to live a fulfilled life.

The 2% mindset…imagine what life would look like if we were all thinking like this.

I spent a lot of  time thinking about what I’m passionate about.  At times it seems like nothing, yet there are things that I really enjoy doing.

Merriam-Webster defines Passion as a strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something.

What does that mean for me?

I spend a lot of time with my 2 year old nephew and he’s always discovering something new.  Almost every experience and encounter is new to him.  I’m in awe of this and think wow, what if we took that on in our lives…Discovery.  What if I took that on…looking at my life newly.

In continuing to explore my purpose in life and my adventurous spirit, the next question I ask myself is…

What Am I Passionate About?
