Friday Inspiration: Your Passions Will Not Lead You Astray

"Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray." -Rumi Growing up I loved entertaining myself with a wide variety things...making magazines + collages, writing stories, designing websites on Angelfire when I got a little older, health + fitness, reading about mental health issues, etc. I didn't imagine I'd figure out a way to combine a lot of these interests into a career.

What did you love to do as a child? What do you love to do now?

Even if you don't turn it into a business, you need to incorporate more of it into your life. Make time for your hobbies and passions. They're worth more than you think.

Or maybe you have a very specific, offbeat interest. This is even better as far as business is concerned, but it could also be a great way for you to connect with like-minded people.

Don't be afraid to share your passions. As the quote says, they will not lead you astray.
