The passion
"Working hard for something we do not care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion." - Peter Drucker.
There is no better way to introduce myself to this beautiful community called steemit than with that great phrase of Peter Drucker, my name is Jacob Perdomo, I am from Caracas Venezuela International Studies student, lover of video games, history, culture, languages , but above all ... lover of the complexity of the human being.
A few years ago the word passion had a very different connotation for me than the one I currently have, at 16 I remember being a recent high school graduate and having been asked ... now what do I do? at that moment as every young man had an eagerness to eat the world, to generate money in large quantities and to have everything that as a child one used to admire in the windows of those big shopping centers of the cities, so I decided that I was going to study something that I gave a lot of money and typical youthful beliefs guided me to university careers such as law, medicine, accounting, engineering ... I decided that I would be an accountant because in my innocence, thinking that an accountant was money was synonymous with that I would have a lot of money and that would be my passion.
Like me, many young people and adults spend great lapses of their lives dedicating their time to things that once considered their "passion", but in the course of the adventure we are gathering experiences that are gradually indicating the bitter road that we have self-imposed and the signs are always the same exhaustion, stress, little desire to carry out the activity, nonconformity and above all disappointment, this is the result of a person who has been day after day doing something that he is not passionately ironic and that leads him to the conclusion that he is wasting his time.
But then what is the passion?
Passion is from this simple photo.
Made from my phone on a day that I decided to transform a simple photo, without worrying about anything more than enjoying the moment.
Passion does not have a predefined line that dictates that patterns must be fulfilled to be passion, passion is what emerges every individual spontaneously, constantly or even daily, for example my current university career, "International Studies" an example of the everyday, where each class is a new experience for me, where research and study is not exhausting but enriching, it is these small details that allow a person to know that he is in the right place and is performing something she likes.
Passion is everything that makes us happy, it is all those who move us to believe in ourselves passion is singing in the shower, the passion is to look at our works and smile, passion ... are YOU.
