Why is it that some groups succeed
While others wither and fail?
What is it that makes the difference?
To what do successful groups avail?
The secret of successful groups is, really, quite simple.
It can be describes several ways – but its really passion.
Passion is the energy that causes things to happen.
Its real, it’s powerful and it’s not “old fashioned”!
Passion is a deep belief that turns talk into action.
That motivates and energized - provides the “spark”.
Not everyone or every group has it.
Those who do accomplish much and show true “heart”
How does one become passionate?
Through belief, commitment and a clear sense of mission.
That’s not all that is required, however.
Passion requires faith, belief in the power of good, and conviction!
Passion can be a powerful motivator -
Spurring one to try new things – to take action.
It can lead to real accomplishments and growth –
Provide a clear sense of purpose and true satisfaction.
Where can we find it -
This elusive thing called “passion”?
This life-changing clarity and conviction
That propels us to productive action?
It’s found in the believe that we can make a real difference –
Such thoughts can create excitement – can energize.
They can provide focus and clarity –
Can propel us into action – our talents to mobilize.
The way to growth and success is no secret.
What is need is really straight forward and clear.
Capture and follow your passion
And you will have good reasons to cheer!
