One Simple Question That WILL Change Your Entire Life!

by Mark Pescetti
15 replies
"What would my life look like if I were living my passions RIGHT NOW?"

Okay, I did say it was a simple question.

But FEEL what it REALLY means.

And imagine the planetary consequences if EVERYONE lived their passions.

What kind of a humanity would that be and look like?

It's exciting to envision the unlimited possibilities, isn't it?

However, for the sake of argument, let's start with YOU...

...Describe your life if you could monetize your passions...

...and how would it positively affect the planet as a whole?

    Half of the time I think my passions are to take over the world like Pinky and the Brain.

    The other half it's more like "Office Space" when he says "If I had a million dollars, I would do absolutely nothing."

    Fortunately, my loving wife helps keep me focused and not cleaning fish at my office desk!

      Alrighty then...

      You're going to have to do A LOT better than this.

      I'm not even remotely interested in sarcasm or "staying grounded" retorts...

      Come on people!

      Let your imaginations wander here.

      If you keep beating the drum of "how things are," or staying focused on your formulaic way of doing things, then what kind of results can you expect?

      I WANT PASSION!

    Hey there Reflection Marketing,

    My first answer was my real answer, not sarcasm. No disrespect intended.

    It was just more light hearted then you were expecting. (which I was unaware of)

    Truthfully, if money wasn't an object... sometimes I think I would concur everything I could with "can't fail" attitude. Other times I feel like I would do nothing at all, except maybe some fishing...

    I hope you get the passionate responses you're hoping for. Your question is a great one. I'll even give you some props with an Excellent rating for your thread.

    Good luck...

    Hi,
    Great question, for me my 2 biggest intentions are to help heal Mother Earth in whatever way possible and I am leaving that open as I wait for the answers and to help others heal or better themselves. To live my life by monetizing my passions I would be creating a healing retreat, producing artwork, finishing off my Life Coaching Certificate and helping others, financially I would be helping my family, healing Mother Earth and finding charities that I could contribute too. I try and look after my elderly parents while also trying to make money online, when I succeed I will have more time to spend with my parents.

      It's interesting... I've known a lot of people who wanted to start a healing retreat.

      If people who have like minded visions got together, it would be so much easier to manifest this paradigm-changing endeavors.

      Be careful though HOW you use your words.

      You aren't TRYING to make a living online... YOU ARE DOING IT RIGHT NOW!

      Always speak your highest-minded intentions as if they're already happening.

        Hi,
        Thanks for that, you're so right, always have my highest intentions at the forefront, a question back, what if making money online is just a means to an end, but not the passion?

          Making money in the new business paradigm is about wholeheartedly HELPING people.

          The more people you help, the more money you can make.

          Money doesn't even remotely have to be the objective...

          ...but leave yourself open to ALLOW the income to effortlessly flow in... always.

    What if my real answer and passion is if I had enough money I would do nothing? My passion really is having free time to use it as I choose.

    So if I was living my passions right now I would likely be surfing the net at home. But tomorrow I might decide to spend a week or two at Disney but do it my way which would only be a few hours each day.

    The truth is there are a lot of people out their who have the passion for nothing. In fact books like the 4 hour work week wouldn't sell if their wasn't.

    When man was hunting and gathering the average work week was like 20 hrs. The rest of the time they were socializing, sleeping, and doing all the things we put asides in our lives.

    Think about it this way
    There are 24 hrs in a day.
    We should be sleeping about 10 hrs(these days most of us sleep like 6)
    If we slept 10 hrs that would leave 14 hrs and on the days we work you figure 9 hr at work and at least 2 hrs for eating and grooming. So we have 3 hours left for life while our ancestors 10,000 years ago had 10 or so a day.

    We were not meant to work so much but society leaves us little choice. But many of us long for and thus have a passion for that level of freedom.

      That's exactly what I do!

      I receive residual income from my ebooks and JV's that pay all my expenses and allow me to live a life of total spontaneity.

      That's what financial freedom is all about.

      I also get to CHOOSe the copywriting clients I want to work with, rather than taking on projects I have no PASSION for just to pay the bills.

      I also get to work anywhere I want.

      Right now, I'm at a coffeehouse called Cooffee to the People in San Franciso on Haight Street. And I'm making money RIGHT NOW because I followed through on monetizing my passions years ago.

      The reason I asked this one simple question is... when you answer it and follow through on making it come true, you get to do whatever you want, whenever you want, because you were brave enough to become Millionaire Mind Warrior!

    What I love doing more than anything else is to teach, motivate, and inspire others. When (not if) I get to where I do this for a living, I'll receive some criticism from a few loved ones but tremendous praise from many others and the inner peace of knowing I'll go to my grave having touched the lives of others. And that's what I focus on and am grateful for.

    Living one's passions is one thing...making enough money WHILE living one's passions is another.

    I'm lucky in that right now, I'm simply passionate about:

    • My family
    • My friends
    • Teaching others

    Being an internet marketer pays me with the third, which gives me the money to focus on the first two.

    I'm a pretty simple person, methinks....

      Making ENOUGH money is simply a matter of following through on your inspiration.

      There are an infinite amount of ways to make money, on and offline.

      Doing whatever it takes is in my humble opinion just another way to give ones power away to what can often feel like an unforgiving world.

      That's exactly WHY I asked this question...

      ...because there are so many people trying to make a living online and doing things that aren't in their true nature, or even worse, completely against their own integrity.

      The stuff people do to make a buck can be ugly.

      It doesn't have to be that way though.

      And part of realizing that TRUTH is opening up your mind to a more expanded perspective about your own spiritual assets that only you can bring to the table.

      Everything you do is a reflection of the way you feel, your beliefs, your judgments and the story you've convinced yourself is true.

      It's just a story though.

      It has no power, expect for the power you give it.

      Anything that sincerely helps people, gives them enjoyment, pleasure, insights, etc., WILL make the money pour into your life - like a tsunami.

      That doesn't mean you won't have to go through all kinds of challenging times to get your passion out there in a BIG way...

      ...it just means that when you follow your bliss, amazing things can and WILL manifest.

    To be successful you must be passionate about what you are doing or passionate about what you are trying to accomplish because you can persevere through the inevitable speed bumps and roadblocks. I snagged that one from Steve Jobs.
    I am passionate about acquiring complete financial and time freedom to soak up all the experiences this life has to offer. I will realize this by helping other people do the same!
    Awesome Thread Mark
