Publisher's summary

Whether you're 20, 40, 60 or older, many of us are still looking for an answer to that perennial question: 'what do I want to be when I grow up?'

In Designing Your Life, Silicon Valley design innovators Bill Burnett and Dave Evans use their expertise to help you work out what you want - and how to get it. Their phenomenally successful Life Design course has been tried and tested by thousands of people, from students to midcareer professionals to retirees contemplating whole new futures.

Now in audiobook form, their simple method will teach you how to use basic design tools to create a life that will work for you. Using lots of real-life stories and proven techniques like reframing, prototyping and mind-mapping, you will learn how to build your way forwards, step by positive step, to a life that's better by a design of your own making. Because a well-designed life means a life well lived.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excited to plan my life!

When I listened to the audiobook I am excited to try out the exercises, the exercises are gradual and not overwhelming. I am a big fan of design thinking, so this is a fun experiment, I know people who made big leaps in their lives because of the things they discovered about themselves from the exercises. Audiobook might require rereading them because of the details and the exercise, not something we can listen to mindlessly doing chores.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
