I got this from Eric’s Chinese Restaurant:
Reasonable people endure; passionate people live.
How appropriate.
I just interviewed 8 candidates back-to-back for our Incubator Program Assistant and E1 Program Assistant positions through Public Allies (an Americorps program), and I swear… if you don’t have passion, you need not apply. Passion is so important when you’re applying for a job and for when you’re actually working in the job.
I don’t know how people can live life without being passionate about what they are doing. It would eat away at the very core of me if I were to do that.
YES…I absolutely LOVE that quote! I hope you–and the good folks at Eric’s–don’t mind if I steal it. 🙂
