MAKE YOUR PASSION YOUR POSITION

FREEDOM IS...LIVING PURPOSE-FULLY...LOVIN WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO!

No tips or smart articles about how to execute better media relations, craft compelling pitches, or place a great article. Not today. Today I just want to share a very simple thought with all of you. Are you in love with your future? I am...so much that sometimes I can't sleep at night because I'm so anxious to see what tomorrow brings. I suppose you could say that I'm passionate about my life.

The word passion gets thrown around so freely and frequently...like "love" or "bling" (I hate that word!). But I have difficulty finding a word that accurately expresses how I feel about my life and where it's headed. This may sound strange, but the reason I'm so gung ho about myself is because I'm doing things I genuinely enjoy doing. Nope...I didn't hit the lottery. I'm largely referring to my career and the network of people with whom I associate. I do pr...well...most of you know this already because I've pretty much incorporated it into my name. "Hi, I'm Jennifer...I do pr!" What I'm saying is that I am working in the field that moves, exhilarates and challenges me--and almost daily opens me up to new experiences, people and information. And I get paid for it--therefore affording me opportunities to travel and see places many have only experienced through pictures. This is what freedom feels like for me!

So my initial question remains: Are you in love with your future? If you get up everyday excited about what you're going to tackle at the office each day, proud that a news producer wants to interview your client, gushing because your pitch resulted in an appearance on FOX news, or elated because your client just performed in a show with David Guetta and it's featured on a top entertainment blog, then you understand where I'm coming from.

Life is too short to go through each day praying for it to be over. Dig deep inside yourself and find something that moves you--energizes you and makes you feel taller than Shaq. It's there. It's in all of us. You have a purpose and it's your responsibility to cultivate and nurture it so that you can be all you're destined to be. Find your passion and fall in love with your future. I give you my word that you won't stop smiling once you do...even on the days when life reminds you how hard it is. Fall in love with yourself and live your wildest dreams...your life depends on it!
