Redesigning Your Path: The Power of Design Thinking for Life
What if you could approach your life with the same creative problem-solving mindset that designers use to create groundbreaking products? This revolutionary premise forms the foundation of "Designing Your Life." The book tackles a widespread epidemic of "dysfunctional beliefs" about careers and happiness that leave many feeling stuck - like Ellen, who loved geology but discovered her major didn't align with her career aspirations, or Janine, who achieved professional success but felt profoundly unfulfilled. By applying design thinking principles to your existence, you can craft a life that's not just tolerable but genuinely joyful and meaningful. This isn't about having all the answers upfront or creating a perfect blueprint - it's about approaching life as an evolving creation that responds to prototyping, testing, and refinement.
