Find Out What Fascinates You and Use That Passion At Work


Can people really love what they are doing at work? Can executives, managers, and those punching the clock actually be passionate about what they do?

Of course, they can find passion at work!


You can get up in the morning looking forward to work. You can find out what fascinates you about what you do. In fact, finding out that key part of you can absolutely mean the difference between just going to work and being enthusiastic about it.

You have to work at it. You can’t just assume that your interests and enthusiasms are easily captured.

He found that the buying habits of some customers were so regular that he could predict fairly accurately what ended up in their shopping bags. He developed an idea about how to arrange merchandise to take advantage of these observations, and he wrote a report to management. You can guess the result: management wanted him on the fast promotion track immediately.

That cashier found things that fascinated him and brought them to work. You can do this, too. Here are some ideas:
