7 Simple Steps to
Discover Your Deepest
              Passion


     Dr Amit Nagpal
     Global Success Coach and India’s
     Personal Branding Pioneer
     www.dramitnagpal.co.in
"You've got to find what you love. And that is
as true for your work as it is for your lovers.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your
life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is
to do what you believe is great work. And the
only way to do great work is to love what you
do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.
Don't settle.
  As with all matters of the heart, you'll know
when you find it. And, like any great
relationship, it just gets better and better as
the years roll on. So keep looking until you
find it. Don't settle."
   Steve Jobs, CEO, Apple Computer
   The Hindi film „3 Idiots‟ has introduced
    Indian masses to the concept of passion
    and its correlation with success.


   In fact once I jokingly wrote on
    Facebook, “Times change and so do
    meanings. After the release of the film 3
    Idiots in India, my students are proudly
    claiming'
      "Yes, I am an Idiot, Proud to be....“

   Make a list of all the hobbies and
    activities, you feel passionate about or
    you enjoy doing. Write all the activities
    without evaluation.




Step 1

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   Shortlist these activities and separate the
    3-5 activities which make you really
    immersed and make you forget
    everything.




Step 2

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   Take a personality/career test, if possible.
    A popular example is Myers-Briggs Type
    Indicator (MBTI) test.




Step 3

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
Ask yourself these questions.
 Have you won any awards, contests,
  competitions etc in any of the shortlisted
  activities?
 Do you love to read and find out more
  and more about a particular subject?
  What makes you curious?

Step 4

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   Do your SWOT
    (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and
    Threats) Analysis. Ask people for your
    strengths and take suggestions from
    them. Match the strengths which you
    have (in your opinion) with the strengths
    suggested by close friends and family
    members. Shortlist which are common to
    both.
Step 5

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   Match the shortlisted activities with
    shortlisted strengths. Which are the
    activities where you can apply your core
    strengths?



Step 6

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   Remember the magic formula PPP or
    Triple P viz. Passion, Persistence and
    Patience. Remember to enjoy the journey
    and don‟t focus too much on reaching the
    destination. Be persistent and have
    patience, results will surely come.

Step 7

www.dramitnagpal.co.in
When you have found your true passion,
   you will feel amazing excitement
   feel as if you are bursting with energy
   you will get fully immersed in work,
   lose track of the world and time
   and your output shall be world class or
    outstanding

 In case of obstacles take the assistance of
  a coach to learn how to use your sub-
  conscious mind
 www.dramitnagpal.co.in
   “Those who wake up each morning with work to
    accomplish and a mission to fulfill are the happiest
    people of all. Please exert yourselves vigorously with
    the determination to live each day to the fullest so
    that you may compose a golden diary of life.”
      Dr Daisaku Ikeda, Buddhist Teacher

   “For living a life of worthiness, one doesn't need to
    know what the world needs. . . One needs to know
    what is that one thing which makes you come alive
    and you just go do it. You will find the answer to what
    world needs i.e. it needs people who have come
    alive.”
     Nauman Sheikh
