“I have a passion for LIFE! A passion to impact people’s lives in a way that their lives are permanently transformed…physically and financially! To live as healthy as I can for as long as I can while leading others who want to do the same on their own terms. A passionate commitment to help others utilize social media and social networking to build a lifestyle, a business.“

From the moment my body registers it’s morning, my brain is thinking about my passion, I’m up and out of bed, motivated by this passion, filled with energy until I hit the pillow in exhaustion at the end of the day…only to dream about my passion! It brings a smile to my face and often some song to my heart, my lips, and occasionally a few Twitter “tweets”! LOL

Speaking of PASSION…

One of my favorite peeps in the social media networking community, Alejandro Reyes, a passionate “successfool”…who built a lifestyle around his passion. He’s an amazing guy with an incredible heart for the people he comes into contact with. You can read that latest on Alejandro from this great piece about the story of Alejandro Reyes becoming Internet Famous.

Alejandro was on his TV show SuccessFool.tv last August and his topic was The 10 Commandments of Passion with his mentor, Gary Zelesky. You’ve got to watch the archived video on Alejandro’s blog if you get a chance.

Here are his passion driven points that a passion filled entrepreneur has that impacts thousands upon thousands of lives:

1. Wealth: If your Passion is not part of what you do you will never be rich!

2: Career/Business: You must build a career/life around Passion to live without regret.

3: Attitude: Your Passion for life will affect your position in life.

4: Significance: If you do not define your Passion someone else will!

5: Responsibility: Do what you must while you focus on your Passion.

6: Balance: Core values are the difference between Passion and Obsession.

7: Time: Manage your Passion not simply your time.

8: Resiliency: Passion never dies it only gets buried through negativity.

9: Goals: Your goals without passion are fantasy!

10: Enthusiasm: Passion is the fuel of the soul that moves your goals forward to completion.

Are you TRULY passionate about what you do? Successful people are driven by their passion!

Looking for more passion examples? I asked the Twitter community that follows me, “What is it that you are passionate about?”  Here’s some of the responses I got about their passion:
