“Quality questions create a quality life. Successful people ask better questions and, as a result, get better answers”
Anthony Robbins
It is essential in your quest to find your passion and even more so when you move into the monetizing of them that you get very curious. You need to start asking questions, lots of questions. In the beginning do not worry overmuch whether the questions are quality or not - you will learn that as we move through this whole process. Ask yourself the deep, uncomfortable questions about what areas of your life are really not satisfying. Do not be scared of the answers, even if they will involve change. Ask those around you for their perspectives on things, sometimes outsiders can spot things which we cannot, yet never substitute their judgment for you own.
Here are 3 questions from my questionnaire that will move you closer to finding your passions.
1. What magazines do you read?
2. With who would you want to swap lifestyles?
3. If you had $50 a month to spend on yourself, what would you spend it on?

What does it mean if you would spend much of it on books and movies?

What type of movies and books you like to buy could provide a big clue to what you are passionate about.

Katherine, I’ve always loved horses. I’ve trained both horses and dogs. I don’t really want to try to write much on training though because there are so many out there and I don’t feel adequate. If I had a choice, I’d be outside reading on the porch or working with my horse, which is sadly neglected right now.
The books I love are varied. I read westerns, sci fi, fantasy, horror, christian fiction, mysteries,etc. When I had time I was learning about trick training my horses. I want to train my dogs to do tricks too.
I have other interests too. I want to play my fiddle and learn to paint. Now can you see my problem more? So much no time.
