We have to think back to a time in our life, when responsibilities were few, and time was abundant, and the only person we had to concern ourselves with was ourself. That is when we were most passionate about a certain activity, or topic.
It's not that we can't have passion in our lives about a certain sport, hobby, event, or activity, it is just that we as educators, parents, students, ADULTS find that we have very little time for the fun events. I, myself, love to participate in sports, and when I am at my peak, the passion exudes. I think that we have limitations in life as we get older. My body is physically unable to compete at the level I wish anymore.
If we have experienced a passion at some point in our life, and experienced the "flow," we can somehow translate these feelings to our students. Making lessons more enjoyable, bringing a passion to our teaching, anything to get the students excited and somehow experience "flow."
