The book is written and laid out nicely to captivate the
short-attention spans of Gen X'ers and Baby Busters(according to
David K. Foot's taxonomy of demographic groups).
In other words -- the series of short stories act as windows into
people's lives, people who have or currently are asking themselves
that very question, "What should I do with my life?" Allowing the
reader to absorb the book in bite size chunks and pay special
attention to stories that relate to him.
Specific answers will not be found in the book. What the reader
will find is a journey of cumulative tales that will help her
understand that many people of all walks of life are asking
themselves that very same question, but handling the challenge of
finding their passion in their own way. The reader will find one
common thread in all of the stories…
Po Bronson writes, "We all have passions if we choose to see them.
Most of us don't get epiphanies. We don't get clarity. Our purpose
doesn't arrive neatly package as destiny. We only get a whisper. A
blank, non-specific urge. That's how it starts."
