We all, at some point, struggle with the mental battle between passion and profession. A part-time passion and a full-time profession is a foolproof solution. It acts as a bridge between your heart and mind. Doing something meaningful for society and the nation and finding the right platform is a very complex task. Many of us have this passion. The Anna movement and the Aam Aadmi Party that emerged from it provided us with a suitable platform in this battle of passion versus profession and made us "part-time politicians." Are there advantages or disadvantages to part-time politics? Can any party, where more than 90 percent of volunteers are part-time, succeed in politics?
