Where Passion Comes From | Simon Sinek
Passion is an output of vision. When we feel that our efforts are contributing to a greater purpose, we feel passionate. But we're not all visionaries - so when we find a vision that resonates with us, our responsibility is to contribute our individual gifts to help bring that vision to life.
+ + +
Simon is an unshakable optimist. He believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together.
Described as “a visionary thinker with a rare intellect,” Simon has devoted his professional life to help advance a vision of the world that does not yet exist; a world in which the vast majority of people wake up every single morning inspired, feel safe wherever they are and end the day fulfilled by the work that they do.
Simon is the author of multiple best-selling books including Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together is Better, and The Infinite Game.

Passion comes from taking lots of SOLO TIME to do the reflection and independent thinking required to come up with new and interesting ideas. If you don't make solo time, you're never going to get that far. Before personal transportation became facilitated during the 20th century just about everyone had loads of solo time and mostly everyone was capable of doing so much more than they can today. You didn't even need to talk about finding motivation, it was already part of the culture. I can't believe he doesn't realize this.
The interviewer is so adorable, he's in complete adoration )))

I found my vision by looking at what bothered me deeply and affected others as well. Then, I turned that into something I want solve as a problem: "imagine if we didn't have to experience that"

I did that and they're only things that you have the least control over, and need top down control. making better standards (e.g. even consistent calendar. better coding, better processes that reduce knowledge waste, etc).
"You don't have to have a vision; you have to find one." So true

I work in a hospital as pharmacist...what i have saw is a hospital are becoming hotels. People want hotels like facilities in hospital which hospital provides but ultimately it increases the cost of treatment for middle or lower class of people. Later ones need only treatment from good doctors but can't afford it because of this worthless facilities. I hope 1 day i can make a hospital where treatment is of utmost importance.

You've got a great Vision ❤️ Don't give up on it, You will help a lot of people with it👍
I love that you say that most people aren't visionaries and that it is ok! I always felt envious in school of those who knew exactly what they wanted to do, who had a very defined mission. I, on the other hand, love learning, the process of building, and I find myself energized by the passions of others. So, rather than trying to find my own vision, I want to help others achieve theirs. I like to say that: "I'm passionate about passionate people."

And it's people like you that we need. :') Seriously, without people like you our visions never fruit.
Simon had also encountered many difficult challenges this year. He was in a darker place a few months ago and found a way out to a future that offers hope. Thank you for the inspiration.
Interesting discussion. Our belief is that there are three elements to what we call the Success Trifecta - Mission Vision Passion. A frequent question I am asked is which (of the three elements) comes first? And do we need all three to get started or make something happen? These are very good questions. Our study suggests that people certainly need at least one of the three but there is no priority order. Some people start with a cause, purpose or why - a clear mission. Others love something so much that it is their passion and that is their motivation to put it to good use. And others start from a clear picture of how they see the future - their vision - and then as Simon suggests in this video build their passion mission and people around that. Where you start is not important other than having a clear Mission or Vision or Passion and then use that element as the fuel to get started. In our experience, the other elements will follow as you get moving. When you get all three, you start to see an alignment develop and a real aligned DNA (culture) of that organisation will show.
When your belief is so strong it takes it to another level that I can't explain like a powerful, magical thing is happening. Simon thank you for your words. always love to help the underrated weak unseen unappreciated old sick lonely poor etc.
A new understanding of 'forgiving'/Forgive. Brilliant. I give compassion (one of my gifts), for any and all slights I may have perceived. FREEDOM!!!
I definitely have noticed in my life that passion has come from doing and creating something that I care about - which has built upon itself and improved the clarity of my vision. And without kindling the initial inspiration through action, it would’ve been smothered by the stresses of a routine life.
Your words resonate a robust feeling to do whatever one can for his or her passion. Thank you Mr. Sinek.

You have said better what I have always thought as a person without an original vision. We need to find one.
Find a vision and give it all to promote it. 💕 🙏. Simon ❤️ 🔥 passion and drive will yield greater. Thank you for reasonable ideas: to not being unfair to our kids. Not everyone is brilliant at creativity nor Maths absolutely true Simon ❤️. I see the good in you and love to you.
You have always added to my confidence and guided me through difficult situations in life.

I agree with you about the best leaders. Best leaders have the ability to inculcate their vision such that others embrace it and pursue it as their own.
Gifts are meant to be given not to be kept. That's powerful.
Thanku for clearing my thoughts about what a vision is....that I can adopt...♡
Passion is Energy, a fuel for success, and the Genesis of Genius. Dream, Believe, Achieve. Find your WHY (purpose) and follow your dreams, they always "know the way" 🖖
Your words always do something that i didn't know could be done
I really appreciate the gifts are for giving piece to this, it's obvious but easily forgettable and makes a lot more sense in this context.
Thank you, for this piece of advice you just put there. From my point of view, I am passionate in making a certain for years but in amateur way. That passion throughout the years faded and there are like some of the pieces I still got in me. I have other things beside my hobby that I want to do, but their to many of them. So, I had this horrible stress feeling like I’m in the unknown zone where I feel lost. When you talked about looking for a vision and see what sparks me to be passionate in. That changed my way of viewing things, which I need to look and find truly what I am passionate about.
WOW... thats a coach speaking not just inspiring just tell how it is to the strong leaders
This just opened me up

You are such a wonderful person and a speaker . I relate so much with your ideas . Many thanks
So much good advice in this clip. Thanks Simon!!
Always listen them who are super in their field You're one of them I love you so much 😎
Im still at 1:08 but that 1 min. was enough to make me realize and understand the movie "passion of the christ"(Im not being religious or spiritual) but that movie didnt make me understand the title(that I saw when I was 15. Im 33 now) until i saw this video thank you
We must inspired people to continue our vision. When they believe in my vision we will be stronger. First time "I believe" < "We believe"

Thank you!
Gifts are for giving. In Latin it’s called a donum and the verb it comes from, donare, means to give (and where we get donation from). Pretty important concept. You’re passionate about what your giving; you stress about what you’re losing.

I may add, I was pushing my kids to get a vision … 😢 What a big mistake 😢 It’s a real relief… I can let go that pressure on themselves and also on myself … I felt guilty they don’t have one yet Felt so guilty I wasn’t able to share with them , to « implement » in them to get a vision Thank you so much
he is just super clear
Simon, I am the person you are talking about. 30 years old, with no passion, but trying to find something to hold onto. I am so that friend who holds onto to ' friends' because I see the good in them and the potential. If that is somehow a gift, I have no idea where in this world or how to apply that in this world.
This man is something
I needed to hear this
I have a vision. I am deeply charmed by leaders who implement 6 hour working days to keep work-life balance healthy.
By far the best explanation I have heard.
Well, sure as hell you're one passionate speaker Simon! 💪
he is just awesome
Thanks...Simon
You are a visionary and I am your follower Simon :)
Well said! And well received!

Never thought about it from this angle. I know I don't have a vision. It made me feel way too inferior to people who have even if they didn't make it work yet much. At least they have it. But now.. I feel lonely in not having it for some reason. Thank you

Few people are born with some talent, very few finds what they are passionate about but almost everyone wants a lot of money...TALENT+PASSION+MONEY=SUCCESS is the most misunderstood equation of our generation, that's why so many people feel lost in life.
My passion was banking earlier.. So if you are saying follow your passion.. such kinds of stuff.. Trust me, your passion changes according to qualitative thoughts
Very nice@
