Book description
Find work you love. On your own terms. From the New York Times bestselling author of Life Is in the Transitions comes a bold new road map for finding meaning and purpose in what you do, based on insights drawn from hundreds of life stories of Americans of all backgrounds. America is at a once-in-a-generation turning point around work: unprecedented numbers are quitting their jobs, rethinking their routines, breaking away from stifling expectations. The most suffocating iron cage of all is the idea that each of us must follow a linear career--lock into a dream early, always climb higher, never stop until you reach the top. Few ideas have squandered more human potential. Employing his signature, immersive approach, Bruce Feiler is known for taking complex challenges and converting them into actionable steps that can help each of us live with more fulfillment and joy. From thousands of hours of interviews, Feiler has distilled a powerful new vision of work: The people who are happiest don't chase someone else's dreams; they chase their own. Freed from outdated scripts, they identify what brings them meaning and write their own story of success. The Search introduces an all-new toolkit for achieving that goal, 21 Questions to Find Work You Love. Practical and empowering, these questions will help you unearth the story of work you've been trying to tell your whole life--then go achieve it. You'll discover: - The upsides and downsides of work you learned from your parents; - Why your childhood role model offers the best clue to what you should do now; - Who is your waymaker; - When to leave a job and when to stay; - What is your purpose right now; ...and much more. From a master storyteller who's helped millions transform their lives for better, The Search arrives as the world reimagines the basic assumptions of work and offers a timely, urgent playbook for each of us to get the happiness we seek, the meaning we crave, and the success we deserve.
