Imagine a world where there is no such thing as a normal pathway. Where people of all different ages and ethnicities decided to look within and found what makes them uniquely made them from everyone else. Imagine a world where people acknowledged their harmonious passion. What is harmonious passion? Harmonious passion is a passion that you have that harmoniously fits in with your life. Unlike, obsessive passion which usually has negative impacts because of the strong desire to pursue it, harmonious passion creates a life of purpose and fulfillment.
Do you have harmonious passion or obsessive passion?
Here is a story that you may or may not identify with to determine if you have harmonious or obsessive passion. A young man that loves to play the keyboard has a huge speaking engagement at his college. One of band friends lets him know that a jazz festival is in town and the band has a spot in the show. His friends persuade him to go. He goes because of his passion for playing the keyboard. The problem with this is that he did not plan for his speaking engagement in the morning, and therefore does not enjoy himself fully at the jazz festival. He then comes home and realizes that he made a huge mistake. The passion for his guitar did not flow with the rest of his life and the obsessive passion overtook his logical mindset to prepare for his speech.
A person with harmonious passion would have kindly declined because they understood that the speaking engagement was tomorrow and it was important. Even though the love to play the keyboard was strong , they would recognized what was priority this passion must flow with the rhythm of life.
Ask yourself today: Do I have harmonious or obsessive passion?
