Review

“The Passion Test provides the simplest, clearest way to get started on knowing what you want-by getting clear on who you are.”—T. Harv Eker, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
 
“It's simple, it's easy, and it's profound.”—Jack Canfield, #1 New York Times bestselling co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul 
 
“[A] clear, simple, and effective method to help you identify your core passions so you can create the fulfilling life you deserve.”—John Gray, Ph.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus
 
“Co-founders of the online magazine Healthy Wealthy '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... both practical and intuitive.”—Publishers Weekly
