Sleeping on duty!

When it comes to sleeping i bet i can flow any other jona in the world.

On a serious note, i really love what i do but it becomes so boring when i have to do same thing over and over again. Within me i have searched for what i really love to do that i do not get bored of easily even if i had to do million times over, but the only thing that keeps cropping up my mind is driving.
An elderly friend of mine (Tunde) once asked me what my passion was when i asked him how one can be financially free to attain his dream. I told him jokingly "Driving" thinking he was going to make jest of me. To my surprise, he smiled and said "Oh! my God that is so interesting and unbelievable". At first i taught this guy is making fun of what i have always cherished in my life, but he continued by saying "If i had that kind of passion, i would have made it to the top list of the world richest people".

I wondered and silently asked myself is this guy alright? Suddenly, he said YES. I was shocked thinking how could he have heard what i found so difficult to hear myself, funny right? He repeated again Yes, you need to look for opportunities around driving and make it something worthwhile, something that will land you in fortune.

I wondered and asked how on earth would i find the kind of opportunity around driving that would earn me that kind of wealth i need to be financially free. He smiled and held me by my shoulder, he said let me tell you how the first idea i conceived from sleeping on duty earned me, my first ten thousand dollar deal. He narrated his story to me and i found it very inspiring.

I taught to myself may be i will sleep on duty, perhaps that idea could come to me on a platter of gold. Unfortunately, I slept off whilst on duty one day and woke up to conceive nothing. In fact, i was as blank as a plain sheet of paper. What do i do?
