I found mine when I was contemplating going to art school or hopping into the work force for IT related work. I was watching a Nikon DF teaser trailer and the opening line "My father used to say, find the one thing you can do all day without looking at your watch. That's your passion." At the time I was pretty glum and that just resonated with me. My passions at the time (and still are) photography and computers. I ended up making the decision that I didn't want to ruin what photography does for me (being a stress reliever and such) by making it a career so I made the executive decision that day to pursue an IT related career and hopefully pursue and art degree later in my life.

I really enjoy what thenewgreen said though. It's a great point and keep trying something new each day!
