Passion - Key Ingredient for Success
June 1, 2005 by SMD
The Donald has released his first TrumpU newsletter [Inside Trump Tower]. The issue is titled Love What You Do and features an article by Mr. Trump called A Key Ingredient for Success. The key that he describes is passion.
“Another way to see this clearly is to realize that passion conquers fear. This is an important fact when considering achievement of any sort. Ralph Waldo Emerson said “Every great and commanding movement in the annals of the world is the triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it.†I agree. Think about that statement and keep it close to you. “
It’s fairly obvious that passion is something that those who become successful all have. But how to get it? I mean you can only drink so much coffee. In my experience passion is being able to keep working on your dream when everything inside you [and possibly outside you] is telling you that it is hopeless and will never work.

That is what I am going through with getting into the Military. Everything inside me and outside me is telling me to give up on it, but I won’t… Does that make me passionate or dumb?
