Passion is the last thing to worry about in your transition. Not the first.

The odds of you finding something new you're as passionate about as something old you're leaving (the uniform) is slim. And holding out for passion risks you missing out on anything less passionate, but doable.

Cal Newport talks about the "Passion Hypothesis". But Good to Great frames the hedgehog concept questions in the exact same way, a decade earlier.

After deciding your number one-five skills & determining how to converts those skills to profit, THEN you can worry about passion. Then you can decide if it's something you want to do & you would find enjoyable. Try to answer the questions in reverse, you never get to the core strengths & skills you bring out of the uniform.
