This book does an outstanding job showing how to discover what your passions are, and then explaining how they are the key to you living a happy and fulfilled life. Instead of the usual success book focusing on money and fame, this book is a users manual that you use to discover what is most important to you. It may be your children, hobby, charity, or career. It does not matter, what does matter is that your time should be spent doing what you are most passionate about.
The question that you ask your self is "My life is ideal when...". Create your perfect life in your mind. Where do you live? Where do you work? How do you spend your day? This book shows how when your lifestyle reflects what you are most passionate about the rest of your life flows in the right direction.
The exercises take you through how to discover your passions by making a list of 15-20 then comparing them with each other and choosing what is most important to you if you had to pick only one. I was shocked after the exercises to learn what my top five were. They were how I spent my time,but the passion test helped me to stop kidding myself and to focus on what truly was most important to me.
Having come from a humble background and achieving a reasonable amount of success I would say I agree completely with the authors teachings. The truly successful among us are very passionate about what they do, whether it is Tiger Woods, Warren Buffett, a loving mother or a great husband they love what they do, and it shows. Buy this book, read it and learn from it, it is about YOUR passions, it is a users manual for YOUR life.
(From quoting Steve Burns, USA)

Aspiring people who long for a more fulfilling and more successful life.

Co-founders of online magazine Healthy Wealthy nWise and partners in Enlightened Alliances, a marketing consulting firm, Chris and Janet Attwood regularly spend time with some of the greatest transformational leaders interviewing them on their passions. Their Passion Series interviews have helped thousands of people learn the principles which lead to a passionate life. They’ve interviewed people like: T. Harv Eker, Neale Donald Walsh, Byron Katie, Stephen R. Covey, David Lynch, Dr. Wayne Dyer, John Gray, and others. Chris and Janet were once married, but are no longer, yet they remain best friends and business partners. After many successful years in the corporate world, they gave up the security of their well-paid jobs to partner with Mark Victor Hansen and Robert Allen to create The Enlightened Millionaire Program. They are founding members of Jack Canfield’s Transformational Leadership Council and active members of Marshall Thurber’s Positive Deviant Network. When not traveling to the far reaches of the globe in pursuit of their passions, they both live in Mill Valley, California. Janet Attwood is a master communicator and connector. She has always had the gift of connecting with people, no matter what their status or position. From the influential and powerful, to the rich and famous, to the Saints of India, Nepal, the Philippines and elsewhere, to lepers and AIDS patients and anyone who is seeking to live their destiny, Janet bonds with every one. She has been the top salesperson at every company she has worked at over the past twenty years and ran the Marketing Division of Books are Fun, the third largest book buyer in the U.S. In the year after her division posted record sales, Books are Fun was sold to Reader’s Digest for $380 million. Janet has been practicing the Transcendental Meditation® program for thirty-seven years and is a facilitator of the Work of Byron Katie. Chris Attwood is an expert in the field of personal development. For over thirty years he has studied and explored the field of human consciousness. In the 80’s he spent more than ten years in deep meditation and has extensively studied the Vedic tradition of India. He has also put his theoretical knowledge to practice. Chris is skilled at consultative sales and management. Over the past 27 years he has been President, Chief Operating Officer, General Manager, or CEO of ten companies. He has sold millions of dollars of consulting and training to organizations like Dell Computer, Royal Bank of Canada, Sprint, Ford Motor Company, Mellon Bank, and others. Janet and Chris are committed to the experience and expression of the unlimited potential of the heart and mind. They teach, and their daily practice is, what it means to live a life of unconditional love.

There are many books on how to achieve your goals. But they come from the brain, not the heart. Our heart is what really motivates us. We feel like doing what we want to do. We don't think it first. Janet and Chris really know how to write from the heart. And it is very simple to find your goals when led there by your heart. Especially when guided by Janet and Chris, who have obviously done their own personal work. The book is clear, the test is easy, and in it's very simplicity you will find profound insight into your life.

Publishers Weekly (MSL quote), USA
<2008-04-09 00:00>
Co-founders of the online magazine Healthy Wealhty 'n' Wise, husband and wife team Bray and Attwood have produced a self-help guide with a simple test at its core, requiring readers to list and prioritize their goals, wants and desires, weeding and striking until they have just five "passions" listed; those are then held against one's life to determine how close one is to each (readers are encouraged to retake the test every six months). A full life steeped in passion is achievable, the authors assert, through the application of three concepts: intention, attention and "no tension." In part one, these concepts are explored in depth, along with seven steps for "Living Life Aligned with Passion"; part two puts these ideas into action. Throughout, the text is peppered with anecdotes, theories and analysis from experts and colleagues who have taken the test and put it to use in their lives. There's nothing revolutionary about Bray and Attwood's technique, but it's a simple (if not exactly "effortless") approach to organizing and prioritizing that's both practical and intuitive.
