Description

Triple your motivation and resilience with one simple step: find your passion or become passionate about the things you already do! Want to hear more? This is the course you should definitely take.

In the banner, I put the flower of the passion fruit. Most of us enjoy the fruit itself, yet we seldom stop to think that without the flower there would be no fruit. In a similar way, a beautiful passionate activity often transforms into various sorts of success.

Finding passion is notoriously difficult. There is false passion, which is often an outcome of manipulation. And then there is a true passion which we discover in a process occasionally called actuation. We can actuate ourselves, be actuated by others, or help other people find their passion. Everything goes as long as the passion is true: motivating, resilience-building, and otherwise constructive. 

Do not expect to find true passion after one minicourse. Yet, when we are talking about life-long learning, you should understand which cues of passion to look for. I think that if you really dedicate a large part of your life to learning you are guaranteed to find a true passion eventually.
