    Finding your passion isn't just about careers and money
    It's about finding your authentic self
    The one you've buried beneath other people's needs

    When you start to incorporate your passions into your daily routine, you cease to work and start to live. And the thing about living is that you never have to retire or resign. -Noeline Kirabo

    Did anyone happen to notice that when she spoke of Mossa and other young people in her country she spoke about how they believed if they did not have an academic paper proving their worth they were nothing. But when they looked inward they learned that their worth had nothing to do with an academic paper/degree. I think a lot of people in America need to learn that as well.

    When you follow your passion and what brings you joy so many doors and new possibilities open up. My life has unfolded in the most incredible and magical ways out of that simple choice. And if someone had told me 20 years ago where would I be today, I could've never believed them. You don't need to stay stuck in what you 'think' your life is, or what you bought along the way that you need to be doing! Take the leap, you'll be amazed at the fantastic possibilities that unfold.

  • @DarshD
    @DarshD 4 года назад +31

    Such a great speech. I think it's very difficult to follow passion but maybe the route of weekend grind while doing a job or doing a full time struggle for passion then weekend work seems like a good way of working on a passion if low on funds. Finding a true passion is tricky itself so glad it was explained here... What makes you happy plus skills make for a good passionate career. Kudos to Esther and Musa.... inspiring people

    • @NoelineKiraboug
      @NoelineKiraboug 4 года назад +2

      Sometimes turning your passion into a profession takes a while so keep working on it. The beauty with the young people we work with is that they are already out of school so they have limited options but to work on their passions until they become professions.

    It's really lovely to hear how that young woman's passion was so selfless and loving. She genuinely wanted to make a change and positively impact people's lives. That's really beautiful. I'm glad she lived long enough to do so and hopefully she'll continue to keep being able to. Wish her the best!

  • @vanessaozolin19

    I look at some celebrities like Billie Eilish and Khalid and I wonder.. How they became so famous at such a young age. And how talented they are. And now I wonder if I could ever be like them. I don't know which one I think is my true passion: singing/performing for a crowd, or painting and drawing. I never told my parents that I like singing because I always get insecure and shy when they ask me to sing or something. I just wanna die as a someone, not a nobody. I want to be known by millions of people. I want to be performing. I want to have a busy hustle and bustle life just like musicians. I really admire their work.

    You guys need to read Cal Newport's book: Don't follow your passion.
    Too many individuals start blogs that offer no value, it's just... Inept rambles. Passion comes after the decades of study and experience; passion comes when you earn control through hard work and competence.

  • @melvinkloh
    @melvinkloh 4 года назад +1

    I think Terri Trespicio's Tedx talk titled "Stop Searching for your Passion" is antithetical to this and more useful because it doesn't stress you to answer the question "what is your passion?". I think Noeline's question "what would you do if you had all the money in the world" is a bit too simplistic and will not work 100% of the time. Some people would just retire and live a boring life if they had all the money in the world. Her view that paper qualifications do not define one is pretty spot on though. Just an opinion.

    @criatvra 4 года назад

    Well, in my case, turning my hobby and passion into a carrer was what killed my passion. The whole fuss that comes along with selling what you are passionate about, making a business and a carreer out of it, sucked the life and essence of what my passion once was: a carefree thing I would do to keep my mind busy from the problems of life. Suddenly, my passion became a source of stress too.
    This is a great ted talk, though. And I really hope it helps lots of people. It just isn't like that for everyone, I guess.
