I'd also add people love being around those spreading good vibes and stay away from those spreading the opposite. Hi Cathy, thanks for stopping by!

I agree trying to deceive everyone else doesn't really work. At some point, no matter how good you are, they will discover the lack of passion, the disbelief, and you would have wasted both your and their time. Hi Brad!

I spent several years selling a product when my heart wasn't in it, and it flat out doesn't work. Customers sense a lack of enthusiasm no matter how well you think you're covering it up.

Most of us work for a significant part of our day. Not liking what we do means spending most of our lives forcing ourselves to do something we dislike. It does show in the end and those around us will be able to tell. Hendry, you are quite right! Most of us work for a significant part of our day.

People know if you do is lack of confidence (and passion). Being passionate about the thing you work on is very important. If I'm not passionate about blogging and the topic I blog about, I would have quit a long time ago when I struggle to make a dime from it. No matter what you do, there will be hard times. Passion helps me follow through. Life is too short to do what you dislike doing. “remind yourself why you love what you’re doing”
