What are you passionate about?
When I was young, I wanted to be a surgeon. In my elementary days we were asked this question....
" What do you want to be when you grow up?
We were also asked to write an essay about it.
I wanted to be doctor, specifically a surgeon. I don't know but I thought it was influenced by a lot of doctors in the side of my father's family.
But I was to be a nurse and during my college days I've been very good at assisting surgeons in the operating room.
That continued when I worked in the hospital.
As we grow older, we discover other passions and one of those that I was passionate about was teaching. I was a nurse educator for about 8 years.
I love sharing my knowledge and skills to aspiring nursing students who wanted to follow our footsteps and learn nursing with dedication and compassion.
I've also discovered another passion and that is being a massage therapist.
I thought this was my calling. I love what I do and I always feel happy after I am able to solve a client's problem and help them restore their energy, relieve their stress and lessen their pain.
In April 2016 I discovered Wealthy Affiliate and one of the things I really want to do is to write. I've been writing since 2013. Basically just about anything.
And Wealthy Affiliate helped me to understand more. That passion can be something that can really be developed to the fullest and can pave the way to earning an income.
I might be busy growing my local business that I do not spend as much time to learn the lessons here but I am trying to manage my time so that it is equally divided.
Learning here at WA is a growing passion that I intend to be really good at.
We all have something that we are passionate about.
What are yours aside from being an affiliate at the home of Affiliate Marketing?
Please share in the comments below. I greatly appreciate it.
Have an exciting day everyday where you love to wake up and do what you are so passionate about that it makes you smile and dream.
Kind regards,
Arline :)

Hi David,
Thank you for taking time to read and comment. I appreciate it.This is one of the things I like at WA. The support and encouragement of co WA members. I hope all of us will be successful in this journey. I need to put in some work and not only just saying it. I am guilty, LOL. I need to reassess and restart.
Have a nice day.

Thank you David, you seem to be very helpful and supportive and very encouraging. Today I was able to finish 2 posts for my 2 websites. I am happy. :D
Good for you! I am trying to find time to focus on what I am learning in WA, wish finish my certificate lessons soon. Did you have experience that you were learning something new from WA, but with time goes by, you forgot the process, what do you do with that?
Hi Lorilee,
Thanks for your comment. I haven't finished my certification course yet but hopefully it'll be done soon. What I do is just to go back and review the lessons. When you do this you will realized that you learn something new that you haven't seen or known the first time you viewed that lesson.
Kind regards,
Arline

Doing the right thing always comes to mind when a question such as this comes up. In terms of creating my business, it seems like it will take work after all and time, Something that there does not seem to be enough of under certain conditions. Passionate for this and family, making sure everyone is and has all they can to succeed in their day to day activities.
I agree with you, to enrich your passion will take a lot of time and work. But the high of having to fulfill your passion is something that really creates happiness.
Thanks Xavier for taking time to comment. Appreciate it.
Kind regards,
Arline :)
I get to combine my passions, thanks to affiliate marketing. I love to travel - we have a travel blog. I love sports - we have a sports blog. I love Siberian Huskies - we're launching our pet blog pretty soon. Don't you just love it when it all comes together that way?
Definitely. That's impressive. Thanks for your time and your comment, appreciate it. You inspires me.
Cheers,
Arline :)
Aw shucks!
Actually I've been working in affiliate marketing since 1999, so I just have a head start. You'll be there soon enough too!

It is the greatest satisfaction when you can live your passion. I thought of being a Doctor after leaving high school, when I immigrated to England I was assigned to the lab at a hospital while furthering my studies; I lasted a week, I had zero tolerance for blood and vomit.
I eventually graduated as a teacher and taught for 18 months after graduation. On returning to my home country I accepted a teaching job and walked out on the first day, I thought if i stayed there I would be there all my life and art was and still is my passion. This year will be 49 years as a full time artist.
Thanks for sharing-do your thing.
God Bless.
Hi, thank you for dropping by and sharing your passion. I admire your accomplishments, 49 years of being a full time artist. That's quiet an achievement. Congratulations. I will visit your website to see your awesome works.
