I agree mostly, but I still think there is things you need to do that singly will promote your business/idea/passion further than other things, you need to learn how to funnel you passion to promote it better.

I agree too that it’s not JUST about passion; however, if you have to go through multiple learning curves when you are starting an online business, especially for the first time, it’s easy to give up and quit when things get tough.
Thanks for the comment!

Passion is associated with heat. If the universe began with the Big Bang, as scientists suggest, the universe began incredibly HOT. I think this gives us mortals a template as to creativity at work; whether that creativity be the beginning of an eBusiness or any act of a creative nature. And like the Space Shuttle, the energy to get all that dead weight off the ground is the greatest at the moment of take-off. Not enough passion – no take-off.

The reason I picked mens clothing and accessories is because I have always liked to look sharp. I’m the guy that would be the first person to wear a tie for dinner or other times dress down to shorts and flip flops and relax. My passion is clothing, and feeling good in it. Obviously I picked a good market for me.Although it is extremely hard work,I will want it to work that much more because I like to do it. Next is having it pay for itself and so on.

It is much more motivating to spend the time it takes to be successful at something a person is “passionate” about and better marketed to others–less likely to come across as just being a “job”.
