A personal interest refers to a particular topic/activity that an individual finds enjoyable/intriguing/worthwhile and wishes to pursue.[1] Hobbies are a type of personal interest in terms of activities.
A passion "can be defined as a strong inclination or enthusiasm towards an activity, subject, or cause that we find deeply interesting, meaningful and enjoyable."[2] A passion has a significantly deeper level of engagement and motivation relative to a mere personal interest.
