Last Tuesday on my Live Internet Show “SuccessfoolTV,” I interviewed my mentor & passion expert Gary Zelesky on the 10 Commandments of Passion. The response was great so I wanted to post this video on my blog & will continue to post my shows on this blog.
Here’s the 10 Commandements:
1. Wealth: If your Passion is not part of what you do you will never be rich!
2: Career/Business: You must build a career/life around Passion to live without regret.
3: Attitude: Your Passion for life will affect your position in life.
4: Significance: If you do not define your Passion someone else will!
5: Responsibility: Do what you must while you focus on your Passion.
6: Balance: Core values are the difference between Passion and Obsession.
7: Time: Manage your Passion not simply your time.
8: Resiliency: Passion never dies it only gets buried through negativity.
9: Goals: Your goals without passion are fantasy!
10: Enthusiasm: Passion is the fuel of the soul that moves your goals forward to completion.
Enjoy!
I was scribbling the 10 commandments furiously on my notepad, so thank you for posting this up.
I love that Gary says “You don’t retire from your passion, you only retire from your position.” It leaves room for people to continually reinvent themselves as they grow, evolve and discover a deeper sense of their own passion and purpose in life.
You and Gary rock! Can’t wait to see you in October!
well i can’t wait to hear how the 30 minute call goes with gary.
you gotta write a blog post about it.
you ROCK!
I can’t wait!
I like the general feel of this, but I do take issue with this:
“Wealth: If your Passion is not part of what you do you will never be rich!”
I have lots of people come to me for coaching that are very wealthy and hate what they do. Or are you talking about wealth as a more nebulous concept than just meaning money, possessions etc?.
he’s not talking about “money” but more in sense of have a “rich” life.
thanks for stopping by & sharing!
I finally have my #10! Great video here and thanks for this list.
Hi, posted this as part of a comment elsewhere, but then I found THIS post, so here goes:
Dude, I NEED a mentor… what are your thoughts on this? although it helps, do they have to be in IM? Apart from a couple of other dudes who are at the same level as me, I don’t know anyone local who could do it if IM experience is a ‘must’. Also, do you believe in more than one mentor? Would love to hear your thoughts on this…
Keep it Phat! Tony.
just thank you for what your offer
