Passion Experiment

What is passion? How do you measure it? Are you too passionate about something, and not passionate about what you say is top shelf?
Try this:
Go hang out with some friends doing the thing they are passionate about and that you hate. It has to be something you don't like for optimum effect. See how they react. See what they put into it. Do they spend too much money on that? Do they waste too much time on that? Do they look silly?
Now consider that thing you like to do? Could it look silly to others? Could it be said you waste too much time or money on that?
Now, think. Are you giving time, money, attention, effort to that which you would say is most important to you?
It may be that you are not passionate about what you thought you were passionate about. You may need to make life changes to make adjustments.
We do what we want to do.
