Diary Entry #2
I watched Happy Death Day 2U last night and learned so much about accepting the fact that you can’t get everything that you want in life. Despite the pain, we move on and live life anyway.
We take note of the good and bad, effective and ineffective, healthy and unhealthy. Then we learn from them and carry them over every day in order to improve ourselves.
We keep doing the good things and learn from those that are bad. We should be better versions of ourselves daily. We shouldn’t hold on and perpetuate the mistakes we made in the past. Instead, we build a better future by leaning from them.
Takeaway: Be a better version of yourself today than you were yesterday and continue improving yourself every day.
If you want to know how to live your life for the better, read the New Testament especially about the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, The Son of Man.
God bless all of you and your families.

Diary Entry #1
Recently, I’ve been reading THE BIBLE and learned so much knowledge about God and Jesus Christ. While reading the bible, I also watch videos from The Bible Project’s YouTube Channel. Their videos are informative and I learned so much about The Bible’s story and narrative. I recommend watching their videos while also reading The Bible to expand your knowledge about God and Jesus, The Son of Man.
I learned that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. No one goes to The Father (YAHWEH) except through Jesus. And it’s difficult to follow Jesus. No one is perfect. But Jesus is perfect. If you want to go to God, go to Jesus first and he’ll cover for you to God. Jesus is the fulfilment of the Old Testament and despite our sins; we can all go back to YAHWEH through King Jesus.

You'll Suffer These 5 Harmful Effects If You Don't Follow Your Passion
We all live diverse lives and it’s up to us how to make use of it. If you’re content of where you are in your life right now, then congratulations; you are blessed. But if you’re like me who dream of something more, then I hope this post will help you figure out what it is you want to achieve in your life.
We are what others refer as “those who have a calling”. A calling is a strong yearning to pursue a certain course of action. It might be difficult for you to admit but there is something deep inside of you that wants to take you on a path that is different from where you are at this time.
You might be thinking that you can’t go after your dreams because of various reasons such as unstable finances, children, and disability. But no matter what it is that’s holding you back from your dream, there are times that your mind wanders off to a fantasy world where you’re the one in control and that you are living the life that you want.
According to Michele Wilk Gazica’s 2014 research, from the University of South Florida, about unanswered occupational calling, a person yielded numerous benefits for having a job that fitted his or her calling while an individual amassed drawbacks for doing work that didn’t meet his or her passion.
Three groups in their study included: individuals whose job matched their calling, those who didn’t have any calling at all, and those whose occupation didn’t suit their calling.
Findings showed that those who had an unanswered job calling or passion experienced more undesirable effects than those whose occupation were in line with their calling and those who didn’t have any calling at all.
Here are the 5 Harmful Effects Of Not Following Your Calling based on the research:
Detrimental Physical Symptoms
The body reacts to what the mind experiences. Not following your calling affects not only the mind but also the physical being. Individuals with an unanswered calling experienced dangerous physical symptoms to a great degree. Some of these included:An upset stomach or nausea.Trouble sleepingHeadacheAcid indigestion or heartburnEye strainDiarrheaStomach cramps (not menstrual)ConstipationRinging in the earsLoss of appetiteDizzinessTiredness or fatigueA backache
Psychological Distress.
You might experience an overabundance of emotions toward the work that you have. But those who were impassionate about their occupation suffered more psychological agony than those whose occupation matched their calling. Some of the adverse traits included:
Work-Related DepressionAnxietyIrritationSadnessUnhappinessAngerAnnoyanceNervousnessRestlessness
Withdrawal Intentions.
Participants with an unanswered calling said that they often considered resigning from their job. Your occupation is supposed to give you a sense of security, a long-term source of income, and happiness. Continuous thought of quitting your job results in anxiety and depression.
Less Job Satisfaction.
Participants with an unanswered calling said that in general, they didn’t like working at their job. Your occupation is supposed to give you a rewarding experience. Productivity level plummets if you continue to work in an unfulfilling environment.
Decreased Life Satisfaction.
Participants also indicated that their living conditions were poor and stated that they had not gotten the important things that they wanted in their lives. When asked if they could live their lives over, they would make changes. Your job is supposed to enhance your way of living and not cut your lifespan. Continuous exposure to stress due to unanswered calling takes a toll on your health. Are you willing to get sick or die for a job that you distaste?
Based on the results of the study, you can infer that an unanswered job calling brings debilitating effects not only to your body, mind, but also life overall. Now, it’s up to you whether you would like to continue enduring these excruciating symptoms or do something about it. The choice is up to you.

Reasons That Will Ignite Your Passion And Awesome Strategies To Follow It
REASONS
Work is difficult when you don’t enjoy your job. You wake up every morning, hoping that everything will change but it won’t. You are still stuck in an occupation that you care less about. It’s not that you are incapable or incompetent toward your work because on the contrary, you are able and knowledgeable like everybody else. You definitely are. However, you aren’t interested in doing the things that you don’t feel passionate about.
Over time, your performance and productivity drop like a bungee jumper without a rope. The emptiness kicks in and it’s hard to get up out of bed, knowing that you’re going to do the same job that you hate over and over again. It’s never going to stop.
You find enjoyment in the solace of friends or video games to ease the pain of not fulfilling your dreams until one day; you realize that it’s too late. You’ve become the person that you don’t want to be – smiling on the outside, unfulfilled on the inside.
You go home every night after a hard day’s work and lie on your bed. You think to yourself, “What if I had done this? What would have become of me?” One thing is for sure. You’re not happy.
Many years later, on your deathbed, regret engulfs you and you say, “I should have.” However, it’s too late. There’s no more time. You lose your last breath.
On the other hand, it’s fun to work when you enjoy your occupation. You smile, laugh, and become productive. Yes, it’s tiring and demands a lot from you but you won’t care because you love every minute of it. You can’t think of doing anything else but the work that you enjoy the most.
Yes, you fail a zillion times but the number of times you get back up are as the same. You grow stronger every time you rise up from your fall. You become more skillful and your intelligence broadens.
You become more valuable to every employer because you got what it takes to grow businesses, influence people, and create things that no one can. As you chase your dreams, your body chemistry changes and you become tougher and thick-skinned. You are able to shrug off pessimism and foster positivity.
Your brain becomes more active and able to think clearer. You develop tremendous problem solving and critical thinking skills that could further your career.
Think about it. Right now. What are your goals? Your dreams? Your aspirations? This might be for yourself or for your family, your loved ones, or significant other. What do you desire that comes from deep inside your heart that pains you every time you think that you can’t get it because of various reasons?
Have you tried going after your dreams? How did it go?
Is fear of failure one of the reasons why you don't follow your dreams? Admit it. You are capable, talented, intelligent, hardworking, and all that. So what’s holding you back? Fear of failure is not uncommon and you should not be ashamed of it. Everyone experiences it. Don’t worry because I have a tool to manage that. Keep reading.
If you think following your dreams is easy, you're in for a surprise. It takes a huge amount of effort. You will encounter numerous hurdles that will measure your self-worth. You will question your motives. You would ask, “Why did I do this in the first place?” You will reach this point but remember that the darkest is always before dawn. The pain won't matter if you're passionate about what you do.
STRATEGIES
How to follow your dreams? Start small. You might overwhelm yourself by completing the biggest task that you could get hands onto but try to relax. Be realistic. You might be going after your dreams but don’t be delusional.
1. Want to write a book? Then, write a sentence.
2. Make a painting? Draw first.
3. Run a marathon? Begin by walking.
It all starts with one small step. Remember that after taking that small step, you do another. Do not stop. Be consistent. No matter how slow you are, just do it; little by little, day by day. They say that it takes ten thousand times to master a skill. Well, it does. Do your best every time.
You started following your dreams by providing an output. It could be a drawing, story, or design. Congrats! Now what? Show your work to others. It's scary but you have to. You will never improve if you don’t present your output to other people. Get their reactions. Feedback is one of the many important factors to gauge the quality of your work.
What if people don't like your output? What matters most is that you made something that means so much to you regardless of what people's reactions are.
People criticized your output. What do you do? Yes, there are assholes who would belittle your work because they feel like it. However, there are also individuals who are willing to provide you with honest yet constructive feedback to help improve your output.
It is difficult to hear harsh words but you take it with a grain of salt. Although not everyone will approve of your output look for trends. Ask yourself, “Am I getting the same unwanted reactions from a hundred people after showing them my work?”
It is certain that you do need to make modifications. Continue to improve your work until you get the feedback that you want. Revise until you get it right.
What if you lose motivation while pursuing your passion? Follow us on Twitter and Instagram for daily quotes to revitalize your passion. Visit our blog as often as you can: letsfindyourpassion.blogspot.com to get weekly articles to maintain motivation in reaching your dreams.

Read the heart-warming short story:
DESCRIPTION
THE PAINFUL TRUTH: “People admire those who they can never be.”
Many settle to live under the blanket of mediocrity. They adore celebrities, stars, billionaires, and the like because they feel that they can never achieve the same status as those individuals.
How many times have people told you that your dreams will never come true because you are not good enough? How many times have you asked yourself the same question?
Two boys from different families live in a humble farming city. Milo loved writing stories and telling them to his friends. Meanwhile, Ethan adored drawing pictures and showing them to everyone. Both aspire to pursue what they enjoy. Milo’s life took a turn to a whole new direction when a death in the family occurred. He was made to choose between pursuing his dream to be a writer or settle down to a secure occupation. Ethan, on the other hand, had no one to help support him and chasing his ambition to become a painter is next to impossible.
Follow the courageous journeys of two boys as they choose between the safety of job security and the exhilarating experience of pursuing one’s passion. One thing is guaranteed. Choosing is the easy part.
Perfect for fans of Paulo Coelho, Two Roads, by nurse-turned-author Neil Rivera, is a compelling and inspirational short story that shows the tremendous difference between choosing the life that other people want for you and living the life that you want for yourself.

WELCOME
The main character in this blog is you. You who can't get up in the morning. The one who lives without purpose. You who are sad, hopeless, and uninspired because you are stuck doing the things that you don't like to do. You who have abandoned all hope to follow your dreams because you feel that it's pointless.
The true reason why I made this blog was because I want to help people find their passions in life through believing in Jesus Christ. There's no such thing as immediate success. It's a journey. It's going to be a difficult excursion but rest assured that nothing is impossible to God. Believe that God will give you what you ask for. How? Only you can answer that and it's going to be through God's miracles. Be patient. I'll do my best to fulfill my mission and I pray you'll be with me.
At first, I was really ashamed of including my belief in Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, in my articles because people might hate, bash, and bully me. They might criticize me and call me a lunatic for professing my faith but I can't do it anymore. I don't want to hide my belief in Jesus. You can call me whatever you want but I will never abandon my faith. Not anymore. If you share my beliefs then you are welcome in this blog and to spread the message. If not, then you're still welcome with open arms to read my content and find information that might be beneficial for you. Come back anytime when Jesus finally touches your life and shows you his powerful glory.
Let's find our passion through our faith in God, through Jesus Christ, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Because no matter what you do, you will never truly be successful until you believe in Jesus Christ. I pray that the wicked stay away from this blog. In Jesus name. Amen.

DESCRIPTION
THE PAINFUL TRUTH: “People admire those who they can never be.”
Many settle to live under the blanket of mediocrity. They adore celebrities, stars, billionaires, and the like because they feel that they can never achieve the same status as those individuals.
How many times have people told you that your dreams will never come true because you are not good enough? How many times have you asked yourself the same question?
Two boys from different families live in a humble farming city. Milo loved writing stories and telling them to his friends. Meanwhile, Ethan adored drawing pictures and showing them to everyone. Both aspire to pursue what they enjoy. Milo’s life took a turn to a whole new direction when a death in the family occurred. He was made to choose between pursuing his dream to be a writer or settle down to a secure occupation. Ethan, on the other hand, had no one to help support him and chasing his ambition to become a painter is next to impossible.
Follow the courageous journeys of two boys as they choose between the safety of job security and the exhilarating experience of pursuing one’s passion. One thing is guaranteed. Choosing is the easy part.
Perfect for fans of Paulo Coelho, Two Roads, by nurse-turned-author Neil Rivera, is a compelling and inspirational short story that shows the tremendous difference between choosing the life that other people want for you and living the life that you want for yourself.
