The Occupy Wall Street movement certainly catches the eye and the ear. People are obviously passionate about a variety of different things. They are channeling that passion into change. We can argue all we want about the effectiveness of the movement, but no one can argue with the passion.
At work, are you keeping yourself from putting that same level of passion in? Most people don’t put in that much passion to their job – whether they love it or hate it. People are attracted to passion. They feed on it and want people with it. To keep people with passion they’ll usually end up giving them more and more of what they want.
You don’t have to have high energy passion every day. It’s the general attitude that will take you to the top.
