To be truly satisfied that your life is well-lived, the object of your passion is something you feel you must be, do, or have. What lights your fire?

Susan C. Young
About This Quote

People are often caught up in the moment and have little time to think about what is important to them. We focus on all of the things that are important to us, but not all of them are important to us at the same time. For instance, someone may put a lot of emphasis on being rich and successful, while another person may place more importance on being funny. Both have passion for money and success, but they focus on different parts of life.

It is important to take the time to think about what lights your fire. What do you want your life to be about? Not what do you want it to be, but what do you want it to be about?
