For some people finding your passion is often the most difficult step to achieving their dreams. Finding your passion is not always easy. One of the best tools I have used to cut throught the weeds and find my focus comes from Stephen Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People." It is to begin with the end in mind. Think of what your ast days could look like. What have you accomplished? Did you go after your dreams? Do you have any regrets? Who is with you and what do they say about you? What do you want them to say. Answer these questions an you may find that your goals become more concrete. At the end of the day, your time on this planet and the people you love are the most valuable things in life. Once they are gone you can never get them back. Never waste them for a second. Hope you enjoy the show. Stay inspired! -Raf
