Designing Your Life - Make it a great Monday

Hey girls,

I found a new book I want to read and study; and encourage you to read as well. It is called Designing Your Life. Here is a website that gives you some background. Watch the 3 minute video when you get a chance.

And here is summary:

Designers create worlds and solve problems using design thinking. Look around your office or home--at the tablet or smartphone you may be holding or the chair you are sitting in. Everything in our lives was designed by someone. And every design starts with a problem that a designer or team of designers seeks to solve.

In this book, Bill Burnett and Dave Evans show us how design thinking can help us create a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling, regardless of who or where we are, what we do or have done for a living, or how young or old we are. The same design thinking responsible for amazing technology, products, and spaces can be used to design and build your career and your life, a life of fulfillment and joy, constantly creative and productive, one that always holds the possibility of surprise.


Make it a great Monday!
