The Blend that drives me. LOH#252

in Ladies of Hivelast month (edited)

Sometimes I wonder what truly drives me...is it passion, profit, or independence. And the truth is, I see myself as a blend of all three.
To practically say it, profit is my passion and it drives my independence.. to be able to do things for myself without having to beg or ask... Even if we need to ask at some point, it won't come from a place of being dependent on permission but seeking freedom for the need to achieve what you need to do and then if it's profitable, trust me.. this Lady right here is passionately motivated.
I’ve always been the type who needs passion to stay committed. If something doesn’t align with my values or views, no matter how shiny or promising it looks, I can’t fully give myself to it. I need to feel connected, to see meaning in what I do, otherwise it becomes empty. That’s why admiration and respect matter so much to me at least to an extent,I don’t just want to do things; I want to feel them.

At the same time, I can’t deny that I love profit. I like making money, building something sustainable, and being able to provide for myself and my family. Profit brings comfort, opportunities, and security. But for me, money is never enough on its own—it’s not about chasing it blindly. It’s about what it makes possible when it’s tied to the right things.

And then there’s independence. This one sits at the core of who I am. I value freedom, the freedom to choose, to be myself, to walk my path even if it’s different from others. I don’t like being boxed in by expectations or forced into a version of myself that doesn’t feel true. Independence is the lens through which I weigh both passion and profit, because without it, neither would be satisfying.

So if I had to put it simply: passion and independence are what drive me, and profit is what fuels the journey. When all three come together, I feel most alive, most myself.

Thank you for your support and reading through...

Well said. Passion gives meaning, independence gives freedom, and profit keeps the dream moving forward. Such a great reminder that success is about balance, not just one thing.
