The illusion of "Passion"

I loved Steve Jobs & still do. One of the best in the game. I read "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish" in +2 & this chapter hooked me like fevicol which become a part of my life philosophy. It talks about lots of things, but passion has been hilighted here like never before. Well, why me, in fact millions of students have come across this chapter (his Stanford speech) & have been deeply influenced by this term. Ironically, this epic speech has not only opened, but it has also blocked the road for millions. How ? Let's find out.

That's why people have applied this term in several contexts without any ground understanding of its true meaning.  Consider the case of Rahul : an imaginary kid, who is excited about entrepreneurship. He heard the story of Mark Zuckerberg & said "I found my passion". Next day, he played a friendly cricket tournament in school
