This week I am wrapping up my series on how to find what you are passionate about for those of you struggling with finding your dream.

I wrote that it’s probably because of some trauma that happened to you in childhood where you became disconnected from the tasks you loved playing.

They are not in any order of importance–just pick the one (or ones) that resonate the most with you.
