We are only around on this planet for a very short while and all too often we regret not following our passions in life.

The thing is, we have a choice. We can stop and pause and find our element, the reason we exist.

Perhaps this is the reason we get out of bed in the morning. This can be called our why. Your element, a term coined by Sir Ken Robinson, is found at the point at which your strengths and passions meet.

When we combine what we're naturally good at with what we love to do, we find our element. In this space, often referred to as being in the zone, we become fully present, our experience of time speeds up, and we find ourselves energised by what we do.

We're filled with a genuine purpose, hence the phrase time flies when you're having fun.

As you move through life, as different strengths and passions intersect, it is almost certain you'll build a collection of elements, with our careers playing a significant part in that evolution.

Ever heard anyone say it doesn't even feel like a job because it's something I love doing? Those who say this have their strengths and passions aligned to perfection.

They're doing something that connects with their own why. With meaning, with purpose, and connection.
