New: Have you heard about the passion test?

I've been reading personal growth, spirituality and self help books for as long as I can remember. I guess I'm a life long learner, always looking for insights and ways to make my life better- healthier, happier, and more fulfilling. I bought and read The Passion Test , a couple of months ago. To be honest, I didn't think it was going to be anything special. But, once I started reading, I couldn't stop.
