Relatively short book. Had some brainstorming kinds of questions listed ("What would you do if you had infinite money"), with some really hand wavy thoughts on the topic. All around it was more of a long-ish blog post than a short book. I don't think it had any particular concrete actions to take away, or anything I'd consider useful. I liked the topic, I liked the questions (as a blog post of questions to ask yourself). But as a book, I hold a bit of a higher bar, and don't think this really was elevated to that level.

It was a relatively short book, which can actually be categorized as a workbook since there was so much writing associated with the questions in the book. The problem was that, even after these 25 questions, finding your passion will not be an easy task. It might work for many, but it did not work for me as much as I expected. Of course, one shouldn't expect to discover their passion in life just by reading a book. But such self-help books are meant to provide some direction/ ideas. This one consisted of many questions that we have probably asked ourselves many times throughout our life, but couldn't figure out the answers to. It was not completely useless, it did help me write up a lot of my thoughts and help me figure out my fears, although not my passion.

It gets your brain going, but in the end it is just a bunch of questions to ask yourself. A few more explanations or stories to discover would be helpful.

Very introspective and easy to follow, as long as you are willing to answer these questions and reflect on who you are this book will be helpful.

The formatting of this book is short chapters followed by some brainstorming questions. I actually answered all the questions and found a few of them to be generally helpful. There were a few times where the questions either are hokey or are basically the same question reworded. The chapters are short but basically skimable, not peppered with anecdotes about fake people to make a point like you see so much in many “self-help” type books. It was short, free, and I got more out of it than expected which is why I gave it a four star.
