How to get passionate at something?

I'm sorry that you interpreted it that way, and I offer my profound apologies. Humour is my way of welcoming new members. If this had been in a sub-forum other than GD, my response would have been more serious. This is where we have fun. Keep in mind, as well, that your original post was incredibly lacking in details. It's not always in your best interest to leave things like that to the imaginations of strangers.

No worries :).

As an aside, one of the things that got me passionate about learning certain things was learning about their history, their development, and the people involved. Learn about the giants in whatever field(s) you might be interested. It might help generate some passion. At least, I don't think it can hurt to do that.

This is great advice. I've been having trouble in maths class this semester, and I bought a new book to read, https://www.amazon.com/dp/0691141347/?tag=pfamazon01-20, on recommendation from many reviewers @ Amazon. It's a history of the maths leading up to, and coming out of the discovery of this curious number, and it's a joy to read! :)

I also recently read "Eureka Man", about Archimedes, "The Poincare Conjecture", and a biography of Paul Dirac, and each one inspired me to find about some new topics and apply myself a bit more. I struggle with maths, big time, but books like these give me some perspective and help motivate me to keep learning.

If a person have passion, nothing is impossible for him.

Wrong. Having passion does not automatically guarantee success. e.g. I can be passionate about violins. But that does not make me a violin player?

We cannot called focus as 'passion'.Passion is big thing than Focus.

Passion applies for artistic thoughts. Focus applies for anything in general.
