1.) What are your comments on the quote?

Well, I like this quote. I mean .. that's y I chose it, rite? 😛 I like the ending, the best.. 'and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it.'

2.) What are some things you're passionate about?

Humm .. well im passionate about FOOD. haha I love food. Im also passionate about pets...mostly dogs.

3.) Are there any things that you've taken yourselves out or because you finally realized that you were not interested? (any commitments…sports teams?..etc etc)

Well I haven't taken myself 'out' or anything... but I do know, what it feels like to do things without passion. I also know how it turns out. 😳

4.) How important would you say Passion is? And why?

Well passion, for anything you do, is actually really very imp. Because if you don't have passion for what you're doing, you're not going to be happy doing it, and there's no point of doing something (for a long time) which doesn't make you happy. You see it's all connected.

5.) Any final comments?

Humm .. I think im going to learn how to 'take myself out' of things Im not really interested in. LMAO. Im not really good at that! 😳

Heyy everyone! Hey Meghavi! 😆

How are you all doing? 😊 Good thanks n u? 😉

Wow!! It's been a long time, since we've had a quote of the week, eh? Alright…well it's back! Check it out!! Below is the QOTW for this week! =) Yay! QOTW is baaaccckkk!!!!! 👏 👏 Thanks Megs...

"Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it."

1.) What are your comments on the quote?

Absolutely correct, wasting time and emotion on something that is not really you, or not morally correct is a waste of life's precious moments. In doing something, you may let your friends down, your parents down, you teachers down, and maybe even your family. But the worst person to let down is yourself. It breaks down your self confidence and kills all joy in life... so definitely be true to yourself and live each day to the best of your ability!

2.) What are some things you're passionate about?

He he... food, sleep and reading, but more importantly family and loved ones, dancing, animals and religion and spiritual progress.

3.) Are there any things that you've taken yourselves out or because you finally realized that you were not interested? (any commitments…sports teams?..etc etc)

Yeah, I volunteeres to assist on a community project, then I realised it was only about politics and how much money we could make, etc... No1 was really honestly interested in community upliftment... so I bowed out. 😊

4.) How important would you say Passion is? And why?

Passion is very important

Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion. You need to be passionate about things, to have complete and utter belief in a purpose in order to be successful. That, to me is passion.

5.) Any final comments?

Just that passion is not only what one would feel for a lover, I may have passion for food or my work. It is good to have passion feuled by ambition, it is then that much easier to be successful and to achieve dreams.

"Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it."

1.) What are your comments on the quote?

I must say, i really like this quote! 😃 Its true, u need to be honest to yourself n things u do. 😃

2.) What are some things you're passionate about?

ummm...well i m passionate about food, dance, n music! 😳 these things make me go crazy! 😆I simply love them...😳

3.) Are there any things that you've taken yourselves out or because you finally realized that you were not interested? (any commitments…sports teams?..etc etc)

Not really, once i commit to do something, i dont back up until i m done with it.

4.) How important would you say Passion is? And why?

I say Passion is a very important thing/feeling a person might have....i think Passion can motivate a person about their desires...but again like mehak_kapoor said desires shouldnt be useless or stupid!

5.) Any final comments?

Even thought i had to read this quote 2 or 3 times before understanding it completely, i really like the quote...especially the ending...just like meghavi ji 😊 "...If you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it." 😳 👏

"Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it."
1.) What are your comments on the quote?

I think that this quote is very true and that everyone should follow this quote. The quote is just basically telling you that instead of lying to yourself and continuing something that you don't love or even like, you should just take yourself out of it. This is very true, wheter it be about school, religion, sports, etc.

2.) What are some things you're passionate about?

I know this may sound stupid, but i'm passionate about school. I like learning and when i learn something new i like to share it with other people. I'm also passionate about my religion. i love my religion a lot and i love learning new things about it so i can have more faith in my religion and actually practice what i learn.

3.) Are there any things that you've taken yourselves out or because you finally realized that you were not interested? (any commitments…sports teams?..etc etc)

No, if i commit to something, i like to stay true to my commitment. If i knew i wouldn't have been able to do it, or that i wouldn't like doing it, i wouldn't have commited to it in the first place.

4.) How important would you say Passion is? And why?

Passion is very important because without passion, life becomes very dull. If you do something without having a passion for it, then you're not putting ur heart into it, ur just doing it for the heck of doing it. Instead, you should do something with ur heart and with passion so that you'll not only do it, but do it whole heartedly and it'll be a form of entertainment for you.

"Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it."

A Valuable day to day life's introspection and ways to lead a laudable performance.

What are some things you're passionate about?

Every day is learning something new, the day we stop learning, we are of no use.

Are there any things that you've taken yourselves out or because you finally realized that you were not interested

So for the efforts taken to any projects or work did't go waste.
The last person to leave without trying is my habbit.

How important would you say Passion is? And why?
Passions are a part and parcel in our life.
I would say passion is the intensity of something when you crave for that something. It can occur in all forms of your life.
You can have passion for women, family, and career. I am passionate about my love, my love for life, and my career. I think, especially for men, its a particular life-force.
If you aren't passionate about yourself, your life or your work, I think you are an object in motion rather than an individual with a spirit.
Plus, I think women like passionate men. (laughs) Because I think passion and truth are inseparable.
Just as love and truth which too are interchangeable.

Any final comments?
Passion means very strong emotion, intense enthusiasm for something to achieve.
well passion dosnt men in relation ships only ..
it also refers to the commitment and desire that one has to achieve self satisfaction...
if it dies away ..then it aint passion...its a passing fancy..
Thanks to Indiaforums and the author for providing me an oppertunity to express my thoughts and observations.
Open to corrections and advices
