Something about Elle Wood's Speech in Legally Blonde...

On our very first day at Harvard, a very wise Professor quoted Aristotle "The law is reason free from passion". Well, no offense to Aristotle, but in my three years at Harvard I have come to find that passion is a key ingredient to the study and practice of law, and of life. It is with passion, courage of conviction, and strong sense of self that we take our next steps into the world, remembering that first impressions are not always correct. You must always have faith in people. And most importantly, you must always have faith in yourself.

Passion as defined in Merriam-Webster.com is the emotion as distinguished from reason. Although I am not in the place to reject Aristotle’s belief, I do believe that passion plays an integral part of determining the enthusiasm (or lack of) of an individual given the sets choices presented to him. Having known through experience that without passion for some people, success is hard to reach.

Passion coupled with determination and with faith in yourself is a lethal combination. It does not guarantee success but it makes it more achievable. Passion inspires you to do what you want but the faith you have in yourself conjures certain abilities and will power that drives you to get your heart's desires.

Though, I do find it rather fascinating how some individuals finds success without “It”, I still believe that doing and achieving something that makes you happy is one of the most fulfilling things in life.
