Episode 1506:

Quotes to ponder:

"Passion is rare. Many people are confused about what exactly they're passionate about."

"The happiest, most successful people rarely followed a pre-existing passion. Instead, they found a way to love what they do by mastering something valuable."

"Trying to figure out what you’re passionate about before you’ve even started working is a recipe for confusion."
