In small groups, compare your sentences with other jump in at the deep end people and choose the best summary for each tip.
Make a list of all the things in your life that you have really enjoyed. It could be work or play, an event, a period of time in your life, etc. Pick one and start digging 5 into the reasons why. Get beyond what you love doing, and break it down into the underlying characteristics. Think of it as identifying your passion's building blocks. Write them down 10 alone or with friends, in one session or on a small pad of paper you carry with you. Above all, be creative. You never know what crazy idea is going to spark the Big One.
Once you have identified some things you think you might be interested in, identify people who are knowledgeable in those 15 areas and contact them.

Our culture places a lot of emphasis on material accomplishments, status, etc. Unfortunately,that gets in the way of real happiness for a lot of people, who choose to stay on the treadmill in pursuit of that version of success. Perhaps 40 you're not at a point where you can or want to change that definition of success.
That's OK; don't. Instead, try identifying one or two less common ways of identifying 'success' - ones that come from the heart - and try to move towards them as well. Our definition of failure, which tends to be all or nothing, also gets in the way. Is it a failure? Or is it an opportunity to learn? If you 'fail' in an effort to move toward your passion, it's not really failure. Think of it as a step in the right direction. Taking a longer term view can help with this.
