Passion

I have many different interests in life and I'm glad you picked this as a topic. Separating interests from my passions is hard at times because once I develop an interest in something I sort of become indulged in it. I'd say things I'm passionate about are things that I would sacrifice my time for, stress about, see everywhere I go and in all that I do as well as what I would lose sleep for. Most importantly, I'm passionate about the things I'm willing to change and challenge myself to gain/accomplish. I enjoy listening to music, dancing like nobody's watching, drawing, reflecting, planning, being creative, driving fast, shopping, styling, learning new things and overcoming anything that seems like a challenge. If I could do one thing for the rest of my life I would probably draw. Just because being able to lay my ideas out and literally make them come to life. My imagination is so big that I feel like I would never get bored when designing, coordinating or creating a vision to make it reality. I have a passion for standing up against anything that gets in my way and learning how to really love life for the good, the bad and the ugly and then sharing that knowledge with others. I enjoy stimulating conversation and inspirational discussions but I live for applying what I learn to my everyday life and see just how much I control my circumstances versus my circumstances dictating me. 

I can tie my passion to any career I will have by continuously forcing myself to see the positive in every situation. However, I would like to turn my passion into a well paying career for myself and I'm currently in the process of figuring out how exactly I'm going to do that! I want to be an architect so that I can move out of America and be able to design and ultimately construct a home anywhere I decide to go. I think as long as I can provide myself with shelter wherever life takes me the rest will surely follow. At this point in my life I'm working on becoming a better me so that I can help the people around me improve themselves and their quality of life too. On one end I want to create things to feed my spirit and on the other end I want to give back to the world and the people I love with my career. I was thinking about doing architecture, landscaping and interior design to please myself and life coaching or motivational speaking to service others.

I love the way these questions unfold. It's like I was thinking in a specific direction and the next question encourages me to think even deeper about it. Any of the career paths I believe I want to follow right now are able to service others-- architecture and design to allow my clients to make their own visions come to life and life coaching, influencing others to be the best version of themselves. In architecture and design I would service others by using my visionary skills, imagination and precision tactics to create the ideal house, yard, room, closet or office to match them specifically. I would want my clients to be able to feel the time and dedication I put into creating something for them by simply glancing at it. I don't want one look at my work to be enough, I want my work to create an insatiable appetite for my expertise. (I'll get there one day!) Life coaching and motivational speaking is a tool I learned about while on a NeighborWorks America conference in Sacramento this past October and absolutely fell in love with it. I knew about motivational speakers helping people improve their perspective and ultimately their lives but learning more about what it takes to keep yourself inspired is what got me. Considering how can I make myself better or what will it matter if I'm not helping someone else do the same thing. As a career life coaching would be deeper than service to any one individual, it would be a service to the entire world if you ask me.

Passion 

The things that come easy 

Can barely please me

I want life to tease me 

Like nothing comes easy 

All cause I know 

I can stick with the flow

Or chose where to go 

Trusting He knows. 

 Challenge my character 

Deepen my love 

Send down the blessings that come from above

For the ones who learn 

With intentions to teach,

Every star in the sky is a goal I can reach. 

If dreams could dance they'd take the lead

Setting a mood

Designating the speed

They'd sweep me away, 

Take me right of my feet 

And when I land my destiny is meet
