Why passion matters

Passion keeps up motivated, makes us keep wanting to pursue our goal despite the obstacles, helps us to be resilient.

But it also makes us better storytellers. When you’re passionate about a topic, a cause, an idea, you spend time looking at it and thinking about it. This time spent looking into a matter can be sometimes turn into contemplation, the art of looking without judgement.

Passion can fuel not only motivation but also contemplation, a new way of looking and understanding. It’s when we look at something we love with wide-open eyes that we see new stories.

The passion that makes the difference isn’t motivational but contemplative, a passion that makes you willing to spend time observing what you’re passionate about to learn something that nobody else has seen yet.
