Passion, Action, Vision, Security, Success

A very wise man once told me that to have success in anything I do in life, I need to live by these five words; passion, action, vision, security, success. "What does that mean", I asked. He then told me the meaning behind those 5 words.
'In whatever you do",he said,  "make sure it is something you are passionate about, something that gives you excitement and something you continually want to return to do. Take action in that passion. Don't be passive and do nothing with it, but start acting based off of that passion. If your passionate about nutrition, start researching nutrition or take a course in nutriition. don't let your passion fizzle out because you are doing nothing with it. This will give you a vision of what you can do with your passion. Maybe your passion is music. If you keep on playing and studying music, this might give you the vision for becoming a music teacher or starting a band or music house. This vision of your passion will keep you going and excite and invigorate your passion.Find other people to come along side you to join you in your passion and vision. This will create a sense of security. You will feel secure in what you are doing, and even if some people criticize you for accomplishing your vision or for whatever reason, it won't matter because the fulfillment of doing what you're passionate about with other peopleb far outweighs any harsh words people say. Once you have mastered these five principles, this will bring you success in whatever it is that you are doing."
I'll add something here. You will find a much greater sense of success and fulfillment when your vision is focused on improving other peoples' lives with your passion.
