This book is one of the best self-help books that I have read, and I read a lot of them. What makes it so good is the honest and realistic advice, tools, and stories that really hit home for me. I now understand how to benefit from my passions in life and that it is possible to have my passions be a part of my home, work, personal, and school life.

Very Inspirational and Practical Help. A Must Read!

This is a very inspirational and uplifting book that helped me get back in touch with the things that I really love to do in my life. It provides real life examples that I could relate to and gave very practical advice that I could begin to apply. I've read lots of self-help books that danced around the concept of passion, but this one not only clarified what was important about passion, but also showed me how to develop a plan of action to start living it too! It's really made a difference for me.

"The Passion Plan" is a wise and savvy guide that will help people find the things that matter to them and then act on their insights to enrich their lives. Dr. Chang offers reality-based tools-not fantasies or miracle cures or easy wealth-that are widely applicable to many life situations, yet tailored to the individual. -Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School
