I've found, you can't force something to be a Special Interest. It just 'comes'. Your Special Interests find you. You don't find them. They just happen! I've tr...

As soon as something turns into a "must" for me, I tend to lose the passion that I used to have for the subject. Also, the things I'm most passionately interested in at the moment are worthless stuff that can't take me anywhere in life. I'm thinking, if it would be possible to learn how to...
