The Portfolio Life

How to Future-Proof Your Career, Avoid Burnout, and Build a Life Bigger Than Your Business Card

Beschreibung

"Having one full-time job is the riskiest career move you can make; we need a new path to design sustainable, future-proof, fulfilling lives that doesn't tie our identities and livelihoods to our jobs. In The Portfolio Life, Harvard professor, serial entrepreneur, and self-described "human Venn diagram" Christina Wallace delivers a model for thriving amidst the constant disruptions of the 21st century. Adapting tried-and-true practices from the business sector, Christina makes Portfolio Living accessible and actionable for all readers through tools like her Balanced Scorecard, 100 Wishes Assessment, time optimization benchmarks, and more. Make no mistake, Portfolio Living isn't about the future of work-this is the present of work. It grants you permission to step back from the cult of ambition and define your life beyond just your paid labor. It's the chance to live a life where you feel secure and fulfilled today, not someday, and design a satisfying, flexible path for the long haul. After all, you only live once"--
