In What Should I Do with My Life? Po Bronson tells the inspirational true stories of people who have found the most meaningful answers to that great question. With humor, empathy, and insight, Bronson writes of remarkable individuals--from young to old, from those just starting out to those in a second career--who have overcome fear and confusion to find a larger truth about their lives and, in doing so, have been transformed by the experience.
What Should I Do with My Life? struck a powerful, resonant chord on publication, causing a multitude of people to rethink their vocations and priorities and start on the path to finding their true place in the world. For this edition, Bronson has added nine new profiles, to further reflect the range and diversity of those who broke away from the chorus to learn the sound of their own voice.

@trunarla Everyone should have a recharging/energising part to their life but it doesn't have to come from their job. "Passion" led me to work past breaking point, resulting in burn out. Now work is only one part of my life. You might enjoy "What Should I Do With My Life" by Po Bronson.
"This new title matches a worthwhile premise--the question of how we each find our personal mission in life--with a tone refreshingly free of either sap or cynicism.... What [Bronson] finds is equally useful to middle-age folks and fresh college grads."
