John R. Miles wrote Passion Struck: Twelve Powerful Principles to Unlock Your Purpose and Ignite Your Most Intentional Life to help the next generation of leaders achieve and live purposefully. After introducing the concepts in the book, the author divided it into two parts. The first section outlines mindset shifts, and the second part details the same number of behavioral adjustments to make up a twelve-part framework. Other chapters look at the application of acting on these steps. Miles uses Jim McKelvey as an example and other experiences to illustrate his points. Most of the concepts are practical, and they display ways to improve readers' lives. He outlines ways to accept failure and psychological pressures as part of the process to reach your goals. Miles shows readers the roadblocks to their success and how to avoid or navigate them.
John R. Miles encourages readers to take the discomforting leap into the unknown and make informed decisions. Adults and young adults could learn a lot by picking up this book, whether they're getting ready to start on a new path or they want to switch from the one they're on. The exercises were helpful for me, and I identified many possibilities for my future by changing certain behaviors. Through studies and interviews, Miles helps readers realize more about themselves, helping them shape a new perspective. The author's personal experience is enough to motivate and inspire readers to take the first step in creating opportunities for growth and improvement. Readers who have the courage to start an empowering and intentional journey today will benefit from reading Passion Struck.
