What is your passion?
I don’t know about you but this week has been absolutely exhausting. I’ve had a training class for work that ran for 10 hours per day, and then I did 2-3 hours of lessons per night following that. So after an exhausting week of work what do you normally do? Sleep? Rent 10 videos from Block Buster?
Those would be nice, and are certainly what most people would be doing. Of course you already know I’m a little crazier than most people. So I’m “unwinding” after an exhausting week by driving to Macon, GA for a “Super Camp” at Mercer College that is run by Higher Ground Softball. Nothing to hard, just 7:30 AM – 5:30 PM each day.
So why am I doing that? Well I’ve found through the years that there are things we like to do, and when we do them we enjoy them, but we can get run down when we do them to much. But I’ve also found that when we do things in our “passion area” we are actually rejuvinated, we actually grow stronger doing rather than wearing down. If you know anything about me at all, you know that I am PASSIONATE about training. I don’t just like training, I LOVE IT. I feed on it. I love helping girls get over their fears. I love watching girls dig deep inside themselves and find that “hidden” reserve of ability that they never knew they had. I love working with other coaches who are also passionate about training and I love learning different techniques to help girls learn.
So while you are rejuvenating your body this weekend on the coach spend time thinking about what it is in life that you are passionate about. I’ve found my passion, and I sure hope you are blessed to find yours.
