The Ultimate Guide to Choosing Passion or Duty Are You Either Passionate or Dutiful? Passionate people are often more creative and successful in their work. They are likely to be more productive and work better with others. Dutiful people are often more organized, efficient, and better at following instructions. They may be less creative but they get the job done. Thinking and feeling tend to overlap in creative people. Someone who is imaginative and creative may also act things out or draw pictures to help themselves understand their thoughts or feelings. According to psychologist Karen Horney, feeling is a natural and spontaneous activity that occurs in the brain. The individual is fully conscious of the impulse, but cannot give it expression. Horney also notes that feeling dominates our lives and largely shapes our behaviour and emotions. Every time we feel an emotion, the feeling arises in our brain and then spreads out through our bodies. Each time a thought about it is triggered in the brain, we feel what is called a "re-feeling" which helps us evaluate it. It's like when you hear your name on someone's mouth and then you see that they are smiling at you. What is the Difference Between Passion and Duty? Passion and duty are two concepts that are often confused with each other. However, they are two very different things. Passion is a feeling or emotion that is felt by a person. It is something that someone does because they want to do it, not because they have to do it. Passion is what drives people to do their best at what they love and makes them feel good about themselves in the process. Duty, on the other hand, is something that someone does because they have to do it. It is something that someone feels obligated to do for some reason such as social norms or expectations from others. Duty can be seen as an obligation or responsibility and it can be difficult for people who feel obligated by duty to find motivation or joy in their work. Are You Passionate and Dutiful About the Same Things? In a relationship, one of the most important things you need to know about a potential partner is their values. If you are both passionate and dutiful about the same things, it will be much easier for you to find common ground in terms of your values. The personality of a potential partner is another important factor in deciding if you will be compatible with them. If you are both outgoing and adventurous you may have a lot in common, but if your personalities clash it will be difficult for the two of you to find common ground or have meaningful conversations. Relationships start with a spark between two people. If two people have the same personality, they will have an easier time finding common ground and communicating with one another. However, if two people have opposite personalities, it may be difficult to find that spark that helps sustain a healthy relationship. A major component of a healthy relationship is communication. If two people have the same personality, they will be able to talk and understand one another better.
