“We must act out passion before we can feel it.”

Jean Paul Sartre

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, we have to start doing something before we actually feel strong emotions about it. For example, if someone wants to become more passionate about their job, they might start by putting extra effort into their work. At first, they might not feel very excited, but by being active and involved, their feelings of passion can grow over time. This is similar to dancing; if you start moving to the music, even if you don't feel like it at first, you might begin to enjoy it and feel the rhythm. Basically, taking action can help create the feelings we want to have. So, don't wait to feel inspired; start doing something, and the passion might come later.
