I suggest you start with curiosity.
Don’t ask yourself: “What is my passion?” That alone can send you into a micro-crisis.
Create your own Curiosity Project - watercolor drawing, blog writing, interior design, contemporary dancing, hosting mini origami workshops, jewellery design, podcast making, baking…
Whatever it is - pay close attention to your body, to how it feels while you’re doing it.
Do you feel excited? Do you feel a sense of flow? Do you feel alive? Do you enjoy it?
If it’s a no. Let it go. Congrats, you’ve discovered that it’s not for you!
If it’s a yes. Congrats, you’ve found something that makes you come alive!
After the Curiosity Project, if you feel a call to follow through, follow.
That’s how I opened my yoga studio in early 2015. I followed my curiosity for yoga.
Throughout it all, I always felt a call to follow further. I didn’t do that out of willpower or discipline. I did that out of curiosity.
Curiosity, as I have learned, can be very similar to love. It draws you in, pulls you closer, pushes you further.
