The Role of Passion in Business
Your business is your way of leaving something behind, achieving financial independence, being totally free and flexible, and helping others. But passion is the fuel that gets your there.
It’s the thing that allows you to take up on new challenges and enjoy every step of the process.
It’s what allows you to work crazy hours when you’re building a business, and not complain about it.
It’s what will help you have a full-time business and build a lifestyle you absolutely love thanks to that. It might take some time, but as long as you stay in the game, there’s no other chance but to win.
The failure rate of startups is 90%. Which means most businesses fail. Some see that as a discouraging fact. But I know why that is. Most people simply give up.
There are 1000 reasons to give up, if you look for them. But if you’re passionate about what you do, it also means there’s no reality where you won’t do it. Most people, me included, admit that we would do that work for free. And we usually do, at least in the beginning.
Passion not only gets you started in business but it keeps you going forever.
That’s something that no business degree, investor, business plan, or amount of initial capital can even measure up to.
My mentors in life and business are people I’ve found online who are all self-made entrepreneurs, living their best life, and growing every single day. They are passionate about what they do, and – honestly – I don’t think I can ever learn from or invest in someone who isn’t that.
This passion in business helps you relate to your ideal clients. It lets you be as real as possible and this is magnetic. I can immediately spot who’s real in their content, branding, products and just how they share their story online.
I have no time to spend on their blog, listening to their podcast, checking out their updates on social, or buy a product from them if they aren’t real.
