Here is the complete transcript of the podcast:
Welcome back to Success with Srini. Happy Monday morning to you. I’m still recording on my iPhone today. So stay with me today. This is the start of the week Monday. So something that I personally have been looking forward to sharing on this podcast. But for some odd reason, this has not happened till now. About a few years ago, literally, a few years ago, I came up within one of my seminars, workshops, I came up with a questionnaire that will help anybody identify their passions. And that questionnaire I shared for the very first time in the workshop. And over the period of time, over the years, I’ve kept on developing that questionnaire. And today on the podcast, I want to share it with you, I want you to hear this out. Of course, I have these questions written down. And if you want a copy of it, I’ll be more than happy to send it to you. But then I want you to hear this. Because as you are listening to this meeting things happen in the mind. So I want you to focus and listen to these questions, as I am saying these questions into the microphone. And as they’re coming through the speakers into your ears. They’re awesome.
Some questions you have to answer to find your true passions. And these 10 questions that I’ll be sharing with you now will help you find your true passions. Question number one, what is the one thing I have always wanted to do? This will allow you to identify that one thing. And the question is designed in a way that will help you also put a plan and get started. So answer the question, what is it one thing I have always wanted to do? But for some reason, I could not do it till now. Question number two, if I could spend today doing whatever I desire, what would it be? Question number three? Where do I really want to live? What city? And what kind of a house? Question number four, where would I like to visit? Which country? Which location? Maybe a mountain? Maybe a valley? Maybe an ocean? Maybe the poles of the earth? Whatever that is? What is that location? Where do I want to visit?
Next one, what do I talk about doing but I never do? This is a big one. What do I talk about doing but I never do it? What are the reasons? I don’t go after my dreams, time, effort, relationships, money, or something else? Or other reasons why? I’m not going after my dreams? How do you finish the sentence? How will I finish the sentence? More than anything? Before I die? I want to more than anything before I die. I want to.
Next one, what are the things in my life that I would like to get rid of now? Which people in my life inspired me and why? If I were to make just one radical change in my life right now, to make my life better? What would it be? How do I feel when I put all my effort into accomplishing one of my goals? How do I feel whenever I achieve a life goal? What is the one thing that’s missing in my life today? Who are my biggest supporters? Who gets in my way of achieving my goals?
These are the questions. Take some time. It doesn’t take a lot of time, maybe 30 minutes today. I want you to replay this podcast. Listen to these questions. Answer these questions. And as you answer these questions, don’t do it once do it. Maybe do it today if you have time, but then also do it towards the end of the week. Or maybe a few more times next week. So you could do this two or three times and look at all the answers. And as you start answering them you’ll see, you’re discovering a whole new side of you.
This question is designed to explore your passions, but then also redefine your identity. That is, there are multiple outcomes that could happen as a result of you answering these questions. So I want you to take some time. And I’ll tell you, you do this, you’ll start to ponder at a whole different level. In each question, the answer to each question could change as you attempt answering these questions multiple times over the next few weeks, but you want to do it, you’ll identify your passions. But then also, a few more things will happen. We’ll get back your excitement will find joy. And you’ll also feel fulfilled as you’re doing this. These are the outcomes as you attempt these questions, that’s all for now. You have a wonderful Monday, start the week, and we’ll come back tomorrow and hopefully, I’m back on my regular mic and my podcasts. That’s all for now. Take care. Bye.
