PASSION STUDIO
Passion, a powerful, barely controllable emotion, motivates us, inspires others, and can change the world in the right hands. Combined with a purpose, it ignites the will to go on long after exhaustion has beaten us to our knees. The Never Quit ideal lives at the intersection of passion and purpose. But passion and purpose are not enough to reach a goal.
Here is why. Think of passion as a sailboat (the idea/the vision) and purpose as the wind (the will/ the why). So, by sheer tenacity, your sailboat has made it into the water. You have a destination in mind (the goal), so now what? If you do not have the required skills and know-how to reach the destination, the sailboat will aimlessly wander for years, making little headway. However, even a little sailing know-how can become a hindrance as over-confidence can blind us to the reality of our level of skill. The solution? A personal inventory is required. An honest assessment related to the idea and goal is critical to realizing a dream — a clear understanding of the skills necessary, assets to be acquired, personal baggage in the way, and more. This assessment will help you chart a map to define an actionable plan and steps to reach your destination.
Your passion and purpose feed and fuel each other and can take on an overwhelming life of their own, but they must be guided with grounded direction and step-by-step action to chip away daily toward your destination.
Below are a set of questions to get you thinking as you head on your journey. Happy sailing!
What is your Ikigai
The term Ikigai means “reason for being,” living life with an intentional purpose to build a life by design instead of one by default. So much of our day is spent on autopilot. We repeat the same job, conversations, and tasks to get as much done as possible during our waking hours. We flop to watch our favorite shows, get to bed to make ready to repeat the process tomorrow — this is a life by default. Finding you’re Ikagai encourages individuals to focus on overall life purpose, “their reason for being.”

Enjoy the ride! And, if it dosent work out, OK. So what did you leann? How can you do it better next time? What do I know now that I didn’t know when I started? You cannot buy that kind of education it is built in the trenches of experience.
The Never Quit motto when we fail. We fall, we get back up, brush oursleves off and at the top of our lungs yell, “NEXT!”
Never Give Up. Never Quit.
