How do we get there?
The better question over, "To seek or not to seek passion," would be, "How to seek passion," and upon that, what is work and what is not work? We should remember that each person is different, potentially, generally, statistically, and what may be hard work for me may not be hard work for you.
Game of Life
So, like an athlete in the game of life, we can train, we can improve, we can grow, and it can be fun but also very challenging at the same time. We can go after destiny, dreams, potential, passion, ambition, the rainbow at the top of the mountain through storms, going towards hope over dope, joy over circumstances.
Contentment
When we feel maybe too entitled, or whatever, then we can feel we don't deserve pain, the hard work, the problems, betrayal, mistakes, or whatever, and as we go after passion, most of it should be in each moment as we go after our passion, we should already be rested in our passion as we can have some joy even as we are not perfect.
Freewill
We can choose to do what we believe in because we want to, even if it feels too hard to do at times. Passion takes dedication, belief, perseverance. Keep going as long as you are aligned with eternity, a foundation, a perspective, that you totally believe in. Don't be scared of questioning what you believe. If you strongly believe in something, nothing can pull you from it.
Destiny is like a Black Hole
But if you are pulled from something you believe in, maybe you're on the wrong path. That is a good thing, to go after what is best over what is merely good enough. That is daily choice, a daily readjustment.
