Praise for Designing Your Life
"Life has questions. They have answers . . . Learn how to find a
fulfilling career . . . learn how to better navigate life's big
moment decisions and kill your 'wicked problems' dead."
--The New York Times "The prototype for a happy life . . .
Burnett and Evans show how to apply Stanford's famous design
principles to finding your place in the world, as a recent graduate
or mid-career."
--NPR's Brian Lehrer "Designing Your Life walks readers
through the process of building a satisfying, meaningful life by
approaching the challenge the way a designer would.
Experimentation. Wayfinding. Prototyping. Constant iteration. You
should read the book. Everyone else will."
--Daniel Pink, bestselling author of Drive
"This [is] the career book of the next decade and . . . the go-to
book that is read as a rite of passage whenever someone is ready to
create a life they love."
--David Kelley, Founder of IDEO "Burnett and Evans believe there
isn't one perfect job waiting for us any more than there is one
perfect solution to a design problem. Rather, our professional
lives are journeys that involve trying lots of jobs in order to
find the ones that make us happy. Everyone should read this
book!"
--Ina Garten, author of the Barefoot Contessa cookbooks and host of
Food Network's Barefoot Contessa "An empowering book based
on their popular class of the same name at Stanford University . .
. Perhaps the book's most important lesson is that the only failure
is settling for a life that makes one unhappy. With useful
fact-finding exercises, an empathetic tone, and sensible advice,
this book will easily earn a place among career-finding
classics."
--Publishers Weekly
