Pursuing My Life Passion
Dream Big
It's Now, Not Never
In their book Life Launch – A Passionate Guide to the Rest of Your Life, Pamela McLean and Frederic Hudson explore the new and different chapters of life. And what a new chapter a return to school is!
Adult learners bring new purpose and motivation to learning, fueled by passion, differing significantly from the often casual approach younger learners take to attending university. It’s that passion that drives adult learners toward their goals.
“Passion is a sense of energy for something”, McLean and Frederic write in their book. “Your passions are your internal energy source, the fire or determination you have for reaching some destination up ahead. They tell you why you are on this journey and what you want from life. They are your push and pull.”
