Whether a person is considering starting a small business or changing career paths，passion must be taken into account.While characteristics such as strong values，talent，ambition，intellect，discipline，persistence （毅力），and luck all contribute to business and career success，following your passion can often make the most significant difference of all.
   Before discussing passion and explaining its significance，we must first define the true meaning of success.Success is usually thought of as making large sums of wealth or achieving a certain level of fame，but true success that satisfies is not all about money.
   Success is better defined as an achievement of a desired aim or purpose.More than money or fame，most people desire to combine their own passions with their work while making a sustainable income.The more you earn，the less money returns，making money an elusive （難以捉摸的） definition of success.
   For most people，success means being proud of their achievements and being part of something that matters.This is particularly true when it comes to meaningful work.If a person decides to follow their passion，there is a greater likelihood that money and traditional success will follow because the time and effort invested in the adventure come with enthusiasm and zeal （熱情）.
   If enthusiasm and passion are present，people tend to be more resilient （有承受力） when facing difficulties.People who are passionate about what they do，rather than just "in it for the money，" tend to be people who have more positive outlooks and can overcome difficulty through problem-solving.
   Also，the more passionate someone is about their job，the more inclined （傾向于） they are to work hard on self-improvement，increasing their chances of success.
   One of the most successful companies in the world is Apple.Apple's founder and most remarkable leader was the late Steve Jobs.In an article titled "The Seven Success Principles of Steve Jobs"，writer Carmine Gallo outlines seven factors responsible for Jobs' success.The article is based on interviews with Apple employees and Steve Jobs himself.The first principle？ "Do what you love." Steve Jobs believed in the power of passion and once said， "People with passion can change the world for the better." Jobs claimed that his passion for his work made all the difference.
