What makes a person truly passionate? I know people who claim to be passionate about this and that, but these "passions" are often short-lived. To me, that's not really being passionate. I am a more reserved person myself, but consider myself passionate about certain things - although it may not show overtly as much. Does that make me a less passionate person? I don't think so. I do have to give my two cents, of course:)

That guy that didn’t want you to do his hair transplant, obviously had some ego issues! He was probably jealous! :^) Golly!

She said, "Of course, why?" He said, "Well, he is just so positive. I don't want to see him." I think that is funny! We attract what we want. I'll be talking about that in 2 weeks! thanks again for your comments. really really appreciated. ;> (experimenting with emoticons) thanks heather. yes, you are right. i relate to most people in life. when i mean that i don’t relate to people without passion, i mean more specifically it is hard for me to talk with people that don’t like something or are innately positive. i attract patients who are inherently positive and those who are inherently negative do not become my patients by their own volition. i have told this story before: i had a patient who asked emina, my hair transplant coordinator, “Is Dr. Lam coming in here to see me?” She said, “Of course, why?” He said, “Well, he is just so positive.

Whew, that’s hard to contemplate!…lol I used to think the solution to a boring day at work was to pretend like it was fun, and I am great at faking it, but I going to work on developing my passion and going from there. Great advice!!! Dr. Lam, I actually think that you relate to people that don’t appear to have passion, better than you think. By encouraging people to find their inner passions, you are in a sense relating to them. Everyone has passion, some more than others, and some may have passion that is not being fully utilized due to a road block, but it is nonetheless still there. I really don’t think there is anyone out there that doesn’t have some form of passion. :) Work & Fun?!
