daniyoung 's review for:
Designing Your Life - How to Build a Well-Lived Joyful Life
by Bill Burnett
I received this book during my last semester of college, and I wish I had read it then. Now, at 27 and in the middle of a career transition, I find its advice—especially on decision-making and career choices—practical and insightful.
The book outlines core principles such as:
1. Be curious.
2. Try new things.
3. Reframe problems.
4. Trust the process.
5. Ask for help.
It encourages readers to balance four key areas of life: "work, play, health, and love" and to identify where to focus if they are imbalanced. Improving the "play" category was a clear takeaway for me.
This book offers an empowering, design-focused approach to navigating life’s challenges. It’s perfect for anyone at a crossroads or looking to make meaningful changes.
