Acharya Prashant addresses the common confusion regarding passion, explaining that most people hold borrowed interests handed down by society or their environment rather than something truly their own. He points out that passions like sports or music are often products of one's upbringing and location rather than innate choices. To find true passion, one must first recognize the falseness of these borrowed interests and approach the question with a clean slate. He suggests that the term 'passion' should be understood as making an 'intelligent choice' in the present moment, which is not a static or dead decision but one that can change from moment to moment.
