Designing a passionate life depends on learning from your experiences. Our lives are a culmination of all of our experiences as well as a series of experiences. The key is to learn from those experiences so you can affect the outcome of new experiences in your life. If you seem to always have similar outcomes to similar experiences, then you are approaching the circumstance with the same mindset and your experience won't change.
For example, if you have problems staying in long term relationships and this pattern repeats over and over, then you are probably approaching each relationship in the same way and with the same mindset, nothing has shifted. In order for change to occur, you must change the way you approach it and that means change your mindset.
You can also learn from your positive experiences. It's also extremely important to notice the patterns of the good experiences in your life. By learning how you contributed to the outcome you can repeat the things your know worked and enjoy continued success in similar experiences.
Take time to look at both the positive and negative experiences in your life and ask yourself the following questions:
What was the outcome?
What did I like about the outcome?
What didn't I like about the outcome?
How did the outcome feel?
What worked as I was going through the experience?
What didn't work as I was going through the experience?
Which of my values were honored?
Which of my values were not honored?
What did I do that felt in integrity?
What did I do that did not feel in integrity?
How did I contribute to the experience?
How can I repeat the positive experience?
What can I change in the negative experience?
What was my mindset in this experience?
What have I learned as a result of this experience?
These are a number of questions that can get you started on your way to understanding how you contribute and learn from all of your life experiences.
