Wisdom Meets Passion: When Generations Collide and Collaborate

Author: Dan Miller and Jared Angaza

Sonya’s Review:  As I have mentioned previously, Dan Miller is someone who I really admire and love all his works, his books, his podcasts and his courses.  I read this book after listening to his other book 48 Days to the Work You love.  This was the first time I had been ‘introduced’ to Jared Angaza, Dan’s son and I was really taken with him.  He has since released an amazing podcast and is doing amzing things 🙂 

I love that this book talks about having wisdom, combining it with passion and achieving success 🙂 its a really cool book and I highly recommend that you read it 🙂 

 

And yes, definitely a MUST read type of book 🙂

Publisher’s Summary

Wisdom without passion is a Ferrari with no gas in the tank. Passion without wisdom is a tricked-out 57 Chevy with no steering wheel. Baby Boomers have relied on wisdom to pave the way to success. Education, knowledge, investing strategies, 401(k)s, real estate leverage, and carefully contrived career paths were expected to lead to success in the golden years. Seeing the overall failure of that formulaic approach to life, younger generations today have relied on passion as the guiding principle for their version of success.

Yet both are necessary. Regardless of age, those using only wisdom to achieve their goals are likely to end up disappointed and unfulfilled, feeling as though they have been chasing empty rainbows. Those trusting passion alone may lose the power of wisdom and end up underachieving, falling short of their potential, and unable to attain their worthy goals. In Wisdom Meets Passion, best-selling author Dan Miller and his entrepreneurial son Jared Angaza show how to blend the two, equipping readers to accomplish their greatest goals, experience the thrill of fulfilling relationships, create meaningful work, and complete their purpose and calling here on earth no matter which age group they represent.
