When work is the major cause of dissatisfaction in your life…
Designing Your Work Life This book is an accessible how-to book for those stuck in their career. A most practical guide for those seeking a career change or simply looking to craft more meaningful job in their current profession, Bill Burnett and Dave Evans’ newest book is full of actionable insights. The authors masterfully identify well over a dozen creative tools to experiment with life’s inevitable tradeoffs in the workplace. Adopting their most promising practices make it possible to make it work, at work, just about anywhere (as long as you are not in an illegal, immoral, or explorative environment).
When crucial relationships are holding you back . . .
The Way of Integrity Martha Beck shares the simple but demanding discipline of living with full integrity. Her clear and compassionate approach demonstrates the power of absolute honesty with your self, first and foremost. Leaning on ageless wisdom from classical sources, the author leads you out of the mire of self deception into more fulfilling relationships and a deeper life of authenticity, yielding the peace and joy that comes with living with full integrity.
When you’re simply stagnating and need a change . . .
Will to Wild If you find yourself going through the motions and lacking zest for life, let Shelby Stanger’s TED talk and podcast inspire you to change your life by changing your perspective, literally, by getting into nature and out of your doldrums.
