Designing your work life Bill Burnette Dave Evens
Take the job you have and make it into the job you want. If not achieving your ambition you will never be happy. Must exam why you want what you want. Where your at is good enough. Reframe what you currently have as a job. You can have both money and meaning in your work. Impact social contributions, money, expression or creativity. With careful adjustment you can balance these three areas. Problem finding as important as problem solving. Identify right problem. Minimal action problem break down into little problems. How might I find ? Happiness in this area.
