    In this eye-opening account, Cal Newport debunks the long-held belief that "follow your passion" is good advice. Not only is the cliché flawed - preexisting passions are rare and have little to do with how most people end up loving their work - but it can also be dangerous, leading to anxiety and chronic job hopping. After making his case against passion, Newport sets out on a quest to discover the reality of how people end up loving what they do.

    Story
    Where does So Good They Can't Ignore You rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    A lot of good well researched material.Quite ground breaking. Somewhere towards the 2/3rd to 3/4th part of the book he started rambling a bit.


    What did you like best about this story?

    The fact about chess players, the ones who did regular tournaments did not improve as much as those who did serious study.
