We all know people who jump out of bed every morning, eager to start the day, so fulfilled by their personal and professional lives that they wouldn't change a thing. What's their secret? Passion. We all have it, but we don't all use it to its full potential. In The Passion Plan, Dr. Richard Chang presents seven simple steps to discovering the things we really care about, deciding where we want them to take us, and developing a plan to get us there. Through clear explanations, insightful self-assessments, and inspiring stories of people both ordinary and famous, Chang shows how the power of passion can reshape our lives.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Whether they climb mountains, run multinational companies, or feed the homeless, successful and satisfied people share one trait—a powerful sense of passion for what they do. Passion has the power to uplift and inspire. It fills us with energy and excitement, and enables us to achieve things we never dreamed possible. This book presents a simple plan that will allow you to discover your own passion and turn it into personal and professional fulfillment. Dr. Richard Chang has pursued his passion to become an internationally renowned consultant on personal and organizational performance, a professional bowler, a champion tennis player, roller skater, and dancer. In The Passion Plan, he translates his experiences and those of the thousands of men and women he's helped into a practical seven-step model that you can follow to fashion the life you long for and create success on your own terms. You'll learn how to listen to your heart, identify your passion and decide where you want it to take you. You'll learn how to use your passion to direct your actions and improve your performance, share your excitement with others, and persist in the face of obstacles. The book's questionnaires and self-assessment tools will help you discover and develop your passion. Checklists and practical suggestions provide the guidance you'll need along the way. Because passion is personal, The Passion Plan is designed to befollowed at your own pace, in your own manner. Individual results may differ, but the effect will be the same-you'll discover what Chang calls "profit with a capital P," profit measured not in dollars but in personal satisfaction and success.
