What am I passionate about?
Wednesday, January 13, 2010



Quoted from some forum: Passion is a very interesting topic. 1 favourite question in Interviews is, " what are you passionate about?" I get alot of funny answers from"I am passionate about engineering""I am passionate about marketing"... and so on. The conversation will then go something like this..

Me: "what is it about marketing that you are passionate about?"

Interviewee: "oh, I like to meet people"

Me: "then are you passionate about marketing or meeting people?"

Interviewee: "errr...."

Me: "can I say that you should be passionate about jobs that allow you to meet people?"

Interviewee: "i think so..."
The point is, alot of people are pretty aimless in life.
From kindergarten to tertiary school, everything is planned out. We live in a structured environment that inhibits the growth of our passion. We need to think hard about what we are passionate about rather than jump into a career and regret it after 10 years. It is a tragedy when it happens. You will feel really trapped.So what are you really passionate about? Think about it!

Its true!
^After reading the above post, it suddenly struck to me that I don't really know where my passion lie too!!! Mr. LEE really did well to make sure most of us who could study make it to uni and then earn better money. But its super true that the system does prevent some of us from growing a passion. SIGH. What is my passion? Probably not engineering since there is so much maths.. I know I like dogs.. So.. Vet? Gosh.. Help!
