This is a nice book to spend a few hours on. It is written by telling a variety of stories and experiences of how individuals have volunteered their time and uncovered their passions. The author believes that when you volunteer you are at your best, you have a passion for what you are doing, you are being gracious and pleasant to be around. As a result people gravitate to you, many times influential people recognize your leadership and unexpected opportunities arise.
