Passion from someone else!
You’ve probably seen what passion or at least you understand the concept of two lovers who have a passion for each other but is that the only kind of passion? We can only grasp that type of passion for some. You can imagine two lovers entwined in each others arms and kissing. They’ll probably even smiling and being so happy. This is definitively one type of passion that we may have experienced in our lifetime. We may never really understand what it truly is until we have it or we have lost it. Although I rarely say this, you should never mix work with pleasure or even date someone from work. There are too many ways it could go badly but people who are lonely or single rarely listen to the adage:
“Don’t eat where you poop!”2
I could go on and tell you other adages but that one has always been one that I hear more than once when people find out about co-workers dating. Just don’t do it!
Should we have passion in the workplace?
This is a tough question to answer because there are so many ways people can think of when it comes to passion. Is it physical, mental and even psychological? What about metaphysical? Can you be passionate about your job? Is it even possible?
We can all imagine ourselves being passionate about something whether you are singing, dancing, writing, speaking, demonstrating or even talking customers about services you offer. Nothing is written in stone when it comes to being passionate but there are a few differences that we need to talk about and they can bring more understanding as to why being passionate about your job is a positive way to go!
It’s a Driving force!
Being passionate about your job can leave a lasting impression in your coworkers mind and maybe even make them work harder for the same purpose or for the same passion. You can imagine someone working hard to help another employee succeed because the feeling is so wonderful. It can make a bond with employees when they work together. Being passionate can bring a sense of self worth when you feel that passion from your coworkers because you want to aspire to be like them! Passion will always be something that drives the workforce. You will find that your employees will be happier and healthier and work even harder than you expected them to.
It’s a positively good feeling!
You may never have felt what it is like to be passionate about your job but when you find that one person who is, you’ll see just how the feelings of optimism and positive feelings will be overflowing. It is almost the part of the process where your are over flowing with joy at doing a job that is much fun and enjoyable that you are giving other people the glimpse into that good feelings and that can help bring people together to work together on projects!
Do you know anyone who is passionate about something? Why not tell them and be a part of the experience. You’ll find that you can bond over this and make even more memories that you might ever experience. Do you have story about this why not drop it in the comments and tell me your story!
