Make Your Passion Your Profession: A Story of Success

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)
“Whatever you enjoy doing, make that your profession. Then work won’t seem to be work, but a game."

It was a sunny Saturday afternoon of 2015, a few weeks before I could finally bid my farewell to college, when a highly comical yet super inspirational movie changed the way how I see life, education, friendship, and success all at once FOREVER.  

The Three Idiots, one of the most successful and highest-grossing Bollywood films of all time, literally taught me what success really means in life. It led me to the profoundest realization that choosing the profession you're most passionate about is the very key to achieving lifelong success and contentment. 

By the way, if you're planning to watch the movie, I advise you to get yourself some tissues. Trust me, you'll need it!

So, why am I here on Steemit? 

My goal, as cliche as it may sound, is to simply share to people what I'm really passionate about - teaching and writing. I strongly believe that Steemit is a great avenue where I can GROW MORE as a passionate writer and LEARN MORE as a teacher by profession. 

At present, I work as an Educational Technology teacher and I'm planning to introduce this platform to my students who share the same passion.

That is my story and and I'm looking forward to creating more together with the Steemit community. 

Give me some sunshine, Steemians! :) 

"All iz well!"

Welcome to Steem @juliusdiam I have upvoted and sent you a tip

I did just that almost 20 yrs ago. My passion is my woodworking so I quit my full time job and opened my own business and haven't looked back since.

So happy that you're doing what your heart really desires. Keep on doing what you love. That's how you'll attain real success. 😊

Yes thank you that's the truth for sure
