There are a few things in my life that I'm really, really interested in and which mean a great deal to me. Most people are ho-hum about most things in our lives, so I really enjoy when I see people doing things they really love and are self-motivated to pursue. What things are you passionate about?

marine and wildlife biology, scuba diving, hunting, sex........these things literally drive my life and make me want to work hard and make money so I can pursue them.

The first edition was called "My Job Went to India: 52 Ways to Save Your Job", so I guess I'm passionate about having a job.

I was with you until the "self-motivated to persue" bit...

I'm passionate about plenty of things, but none of them involve any actual work on my part (at least, nothing that I'd consider work). Thinking about, analyzing, criticizing, appreciating, maybe writing about... but not actually doing.

No, seriously:
Running
Physical fitness
Nutrition
Public speaking (and mentoring others)

I'm President of a chapter of a public speaking organization and I'm about to move into a bigger role, overseeing/counseling multiple clubs. It's totally nerdy and there are no people my age who do it, but it's one of those things that I absolutely love. Public speaking is very thrilling, and it's satisfying to mentor others to be better speakers.

^^ Sure thing! Though it's hard to mentor someone for public speaking when you're not around to hear them speak. I recommend checking out a local chapter of Toastmasters.

environmental responsibility (though both extremes - let's rape the planet and let's all hug trees - annoy the crap out of me)
