#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER - At last, a book that shows you how to build--design--a life you can thrive in, at any age or stage - "Life has questions. They have answers." --The New York Times Designers create worlds and solve problems using design thinking. Look around your office or home--at the tablet or smartphone you may be holding or the chair you are sitting in. Everything in our lives was designed by someone. And every design starts with a problem that a designer or team of designers seeks to solve. In this book, Bill Burnett and Dave Evans show us how design thinking can help us create a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling, regardless of who or where we are, what we do or have done for a living, or how young or old we are. The same design thinking responsible for amazing technology, products, and spaces can be used to design and build your career and your life, a life of fulfillment and joy, constantly creative and productive, one that always holds the possibility of surprise.
This book was recommended to me but I honestly wasn’t expecting too much from it. But I am so shocked. Being at a point in my life of wanting to totally change careers, I found this book a great resource and motivator. I didn’t want to put this book down once I started! Now, not everything has been about applicable which is why I can’t give it 5 stars, but I am so glad I got this book! If you are trying to change careers or job hunt in general to build a happier life, you should check this out!
