In this episode we talk about passion and why follow your passion is actually bad advice when given on its own

This is the first ever book review episode so go make yourself a cup of coffee because you are now listening to tiny leaps big change. Welcome to another episode of Tiny Leif's Big Changes, where I share simple research-back

strategies you can use to get more out of your life.

My name is Greg Klunis and before I jump into today's

episode I want to let you know that it's going to be a bit different from what

you've heard so far. In this episode I will be reviewing the book So Good They Can't

ignore you by Cal Newport. This has been one of my favorite reads of the past few months

and honestly that is why I believe it deserves its own episode.

So let's get into the review.

A few weeks ago I started reading so good they can't ignore you and honestly after finishing the book I've been completely blown away.

This book is extremely well written with a focus on communicating one main point.

your passion isn't always the best move and in most cases it's actually proven to

be a very bad decision. This book is such an incredible read because it breaks down

this idea, shares real examples of the mistakes people have made, and then

gives you a new framework around which you can build a career that has purpose, fulfillment, and that

couldn't recommend it more. In fact, I'm going to be

reaching out to my alma mater and suggesting that this become required reading for all students.

But don't just listen to me. Here's what some of the reviewers had to say.
