Episode 3516:

Mark Manson dismantles the myth of “finding your passion” by arguing that passion isn’t something to be discovered, it’s already there, hidden in what you naturally gravitate toward. The real obstacle isn’t a lack of passion but fear, expectations, and misplaced priorities. Instead of endlessly searching, start doing what excites you, even if it doesn’t seem practical at first.

Quotes to ponder:

“If you have to look for what you’re passionate about, then you’re probably not passionate about it at all.”

“The problem isn’t passion. It’s never passion. It’s priorities.”

“A child does not walk onto a playground and say to herself, ‘How do I find fun?’ She just goes and has fun.”
