What happens when you combine your talent with your passion?
According to our guest on this episode of Talking Business Now, legendary Orlando Magic co-founder Pat Williams, you find your “success intersection.” 
When Pat was seven years old, his passion was baseball. By the time he made it to the minor leagues, he realized after just two years that as much as he loved the sport, it wasn't his greatest talent. 
Little did he know that his career in sports was just beginning. He discovered that he had a real talent for leadership and sales. When he combined those talents with his passion for sports, he discovered his success intersection.
In this episode from our 2017 podcast archives, Pat discusses his book, “The Success Intersection: What Happens When Your Talent Meets Your Passion.” 
Listen in and learn how to identify your greatest talent, pursue your greatest passion and multiply your efforts through teamwork. 
Basketball hall-of-famer Pat Williams founded the Orlando Magic and retired as senior vice president in April 2019, after a 56-year career that included more than 30 years with the Magic.
He's also a popular motivational speaker who’s written more than 100 books and makes about 150 guest appearances a year.  Pat was also the general manager of the 1983 world champion Philadelphia 76ers, and he managed the Chicago Bulls and the Atlanta Hawks.
