Summary
In this episode of No Days Off, Brian breaks down the real meaning of the word "passion." While we often use passion to describe excitement, energy, or enjoyment, the word traces back to the Latin passio, meaning to suffer, endure, or undergo. That origin changes the question. Passion is not just what lights you up. It is what you are willing to endure because the outcome matters. Brian connects this idea to business, real estate, health, family, leadership, and personal growth. It is easy to feel passionate when everything is working, but the real test comes when the calls go unanswered, the deal falls apart, the result is delayed, or the work becomes repetitive. This episode challenges you to stop asking only what you are passionate about and start asking what you are willing to suffer through, stay consistent with, and keep carrying when the excitement fades. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
