5.0 out of 5 stars What's Stopping You?, 4 April 2007
By M. J. Sanderson - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
`Find Your Passion' is a down to earth book that is clear and unaffected. Jo Parfitt writes from her own experiences which gives the book a warmth and authenticity. I got it at a time when I was feeling that all my own passions had been spent. Not at all - by working through the deceptively simple exercises that really dig deep into the psyche and soul, I discovered long-forgotten desires and wishes that I have yet to experience and put into my life. And I don't have to spend weeks or months working on them as the exercises (and tips) go straight to the point. I particularly like the `What's stopping you?' question, which is one I can't ignore any longer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Move, shake and rock your world, 30 Mar 2007
The buzz that I got from reading Jo's book is simply unbeatable - because she puts your future back in your own hands. The clarity and zeal with which Jo explains how, by harnassing the passion you know you have inside, you can turn your life around,is exhilarating. Find Your Passion opens up new doors in your mind, which in turn opens new doors in your life - and that kind of inspiration is just what I needed. Jo shows you how work is no longer a four letter word when you're doing something that turns you on. If you are looking for something to move, shake and rock your world, Jo Parfitt's book can do all that and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiration at its Finest, 21 Mar 2007
Yet again, I find myself reading a book by Jo Parfitt and being inspired. She really is what she claims to be 'a personal inspirer'.

Encouraging each of us to use our skills, interests and passion of the moment to create a career we'll enjoy. "Reinvention is the key to success," she announces, explaining that if you're lucky enough to enjoy your work, you'll be enthusiastic about your career. It's well known that enthusiasm creates opportunities, which is more likely to lead to success.

Jo talks honestly and with humour about her personal failures, and how these didn't put her off re-inventing a new opportunity. Case studies prove the idea works in different careers.

I found myself being simultaneously inspired, motivated, challenged and fulfilled and am already working my way through the 20 tips and 20 tasks to identify my passion(s). It's never too late to start getting more from your career and this books helps to get started.
