WORDS THAT INSPIRE A monthly quick shot to motivate you, in less
than 45 seconds, from Julie Cohen Coaching
What is your PASSION?
Dictionary*says: strong liking for or devotion to some activity,
object or concept; object of desire or deep interest; love.
What it REALLY means: doing something or believing in something
that matters to you; making choices based on something that
energizes you and excites you; one of the reasons you enjoy
getting up in the morning and doing what you do.
Why it MATTERS? Incorporating PASSION into your life and work
feels good. Excitement replaces drudgery; Meaningful replaces
‘so what?’; ‘Want to’ replaces ‘should do’.
Questions that INSPIRE: •What is your PASSION? What action,
belief, vision or object excites and interests you? •What would
it feel like if this PASSION was a part of your life every day?
•How is that feeling different from now? •What one step can you
take today which will make your PASSION more a part of your life
or your work?
I would love to hear your answers and comments. Take 45 seconds

will keep all responses confidential and reply directly to you.
