What are you good at, what do you love doing, what can you talk about without even thinking about it and without tiring of it? I ask them. That’s where you should put your energy. There is tremendous power in that because it drives you forward through the ups and downs—and there will always be plenty of both. That passion and knowledge also signal to others that you are genuine, with personal ambitions, true expertise, a direction in life—the real deal. People are attracted to that, and you will need the support of others.
