Pretty straight forward but couldn't connect with it much.

During the initial days of my career I traveled to Bangalore in search for jobs. 
I was about to get settled with something usual when I met a person named Janardhan. 

Knowing where I was he asked me 3 simple questions that challenged my thought...

What makes you feel good not just when you have completed it but in the process of doing it?

What makes you forget your food, your sleep or anything/anyone while you are doing it?

What gives you a sense of accomplishment even though everyone around you are against it?

That's your passion...

It can be anything from reading books, watching movies, playing with your friends, cooking, painting, singing or listening to music, reading or writing, video games, being with your friends, helping the needy, compassionate to other human beings or pet animals, motivating others, coaching your juniors in school or just making people laugh. 

There is a career and a channel for anything and everything in today's world. 

Go figure out yours by asking these simple questions.
