from Your Won Life · host Kimyung Kim and Dave Evans
After selling over a million books and training thousands of educators worldwide, co-authors of 'Designing Your Life' and 'Designing Your New Work Life' Dave Evans and Bill Burnett kept hearing the same thing from readers: "I did everything right and I'm still not fulfilled." That frustration — amplified by the pandemic and the Great Resignation — is what drove them to write their third book, 'How To Live A Meaningful Life' which helps us all to live find meaning, joy, and flow in our daily lives. In this episdoe Dave explains the following: Most people chase meaning through impact or fulfillment, he teaches is a better way: stop chasing being fulfilled, start being fully alive The Scandal of Particularity — you'll never have the perfect experience, and that's the point. Enjoy the imperfect moment in front of you The Five Mindsets of meaning making: Wonder, Radical Acceptance, Availability, Fully Engaged + Calmly Detached, Create Your World To accept reality fast and you free yourself to see what it's actually offering you The Tale of Two Worlds — 98% of life is spent in transactional mode. The flow world, where meaning lives, is always available to you Coherency Sightings — catch yourself living your values, which makes life feel meaningful and will guide you to live more into who you truly are Formative Communities — community organized around becoming, not shared interests or tasks Meaning is closer than you think — you're just not looking in the right place If you want to check out Dave and Bill's new book, newsletter, or previous books, visit their website DesigningYour.Life You can follow them on Instagram Connect with Kimyung on Instagram or LinkedIn
