Passion Struck is a book that challenges the conventional notion that success is purely measured by material possessions in society. The author encourages individuals to live intentionally, prioritizing authenticity, passion, and purpose. The book showcases the stories of successful people to inspire readers to pursue their goals with dedication and enthusiasm. The book stresses the transformative ability to take bold and consistent action, exploring the concepts of passion and perseverance. To live intentionally, one must break away from transactional mindsets, cultivate perseverance, and strive for authentic success. Intentionality can be developed through taking deliberate actions, aligning with one's purpose, collaborating with others, and eliminating the word "can't" from one's vocabulary.
Passion Struck is a guide by John R. Miles that goes beyond traditional self-help literature, offering a roadmap for intentional living and personal fulfillment. The book includes insightful stories, practical exercises, and wisdom from iconic figures to create a comprehensive guide for those seeking purpose and passion. Miles covers various topics, including challenging societal norms, overcoming internal obstacles like fear and negative thoughts, and leadership. The book is suitable for personal development and individuals in leadership roles.
The book emphasizes intentionality, encouraging readers to break free from societal expectations and cultivate a life aligned with their true desires. The real-life stories of successful individuals like Jeff Bezos, Oprah Winfrey, and SpaceX's Elon Musk add an authentic and inspiring layer to the book. The book also features a twelve-step Passion Struck Framework that combines mindset shifts and intentional behavior changes.
I found no negative aspects of the book. The narrative is engaging, and the author's writing style is both deep and accessible. Each chapter builds on the previous one smoothly, creating a cohesive and inspiring journey for the reader. Additionally, exercises at the end of each chapter make the book practical and applicable for personal growth.
However, the book editing is top-notch, ensuring a polished and engaging reading experience. I rate the book 5 out of 5 stars because of its exceptional blend of inspiration, practicality, and authenticity. This book is a must-read for anyone ready to embark on a transformative journey toward passion, purpose, and significance. I highly recommend it to aspiring leaders seeking personal and professional growth and those who want to redefine their purpose by breaking free from societal expectations.
