Life is a design project, and like any great creation, it requires a plan. In Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life, authors Bill Burnett and Dave Evans merge the principles of design thinking with personal development to help you craft a life that is both fulfilling and productive. This #1 New York Times bestseller encourages you to view your life as a series of constructs, each one ripe for innovation.
Every designer begins with a problem, and every human experiences challenges that can seem insurmountable. But what if you could tackle these challenges with the same creativity used to build the chair you sit on or the device in your hand? Burnett and Evans suggest that the same methods designers use can be employed to navigate life's questions. Their book provides frameworks and tools to help you evaluate your current situation and dream up possibilities.
