Living passionately is not about....

Living passionately is an important aspect of a fulfilling life. But passion doesn't have to be reserved for just our goals. We have become so goal oriented that we have lost being involved in the activity and the journey. I agree that without passion for the journey itself, and that includes all areas of life, there will be disappointment when we reach our destination.

Besides, there is no destination. Life is an on-going process of evolution. So when we focus on reach the goal to feel satisfaction, we are reaching for a ghost.

So the only definition I can see is a bad habit is anything that has a disruptive, sabotaging and negative impact on our life. But in general, if we focus on strengthening our positive qualities, rather than trying to weed out every little negative action, we will create a more positive and productive lifestyle.
