So what, exactly, is passion?
"[a] strong inclination toward an activity that people like, that they find important, and in which they invest time and energy." Vallerand and Houlfort (2003)
![Page 6: Do What You Love: Make Your Talents and Passions Work for You](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051514/548d070db4795982638b4658/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
"valuation of the activity"and
"internalization of the representation of the activity in one's core aspect of the self, namely
one's identity."
How do I get it?
Vallerand and Houlfort (2003)

Passive Programming"Passive programming engages...without
requiring much from staff in terms of supervision. It can be applied by those of all experience and comfort levels, making it an
ideal solution for those who aren’t necessarily ...experts or when staff is simply spread too
thin. It’s non-threatening, as well as flexible for implementation and participation."
