What we have learnt so far
During the last 10 weeks or so we have had a number of interviews and discovered some common threads around life passion and business
One of the things comes through it is about following the energy, all of my guests had a curiosity for life
They have an interest in what is going on around them.
There is something about discovering the qualities of your character because when you explore and express those qualities you are fulfilling the purpose you were made for
What is Success
This is not necessarily something that is comparable with others. Your success may look and feel different.
Money is not always the answer but it can be a tool
Following your joy can be the same as following your passion
Passion is often about serving the world or serving a greater purpose.
But the one thing that is important if you are going to follow a life of passion and purpose is to make sure that you're serving your own purpose and that you are looking after yourself.
Dan put it best when he said. Are you earning enough to give you the freedom to do the things you are passionate about?
My conclusion in making this programme was that it is difficult to review and distil ten interviews without telling you everything. I can only say listen to them they are worth the time.
