Ask ‘What Makes You Forget The World Around You?’ To Find Your Passion

A lot of people don’t follow their passion, because they simply don’t know what their passion is. Steven Aitchison recommends asking yourself a simple question: What makes you forget the world around you?

We all have something that gets us going in our own little world. That, Steven says, is probably something to latch onto:

When I am writing, creating images, creating websites or helping others to do better online, I lose track of all time. I am in the zone and time and space just doesn’t seem to exist. One minute it is 8am and the next minute it is 1pm. I lose track of everything and even forget to eat. There have been many times, Sharon has come home from work and asked what I had for lunch and I suddenly remember that i have forgotten to eat lunch.

Do you have something that you do that makes you forget everything around?

He details six other questions you should ask yourself, including whether you’re ready to leave your comfort zone, and what you would do if you weren’t allowed in your house all day.
