Do you feel stuck and anxious about the future? Do you feel like you should know what you want to do with your life but you aren’t sure which direction to head?
Stanford professors Bill Burnett and Dave Evans are joining us at CreativeLive to teach a class based on their #1 New York Times bestseller, Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life.
By leveraging proven design thinking principles used by leading companies such as IDEO, IBM, and Apple, they will teach you how to apply that same methodology to making your biggest life decisions. Regardless of age, income, or stage in life, their unique approach to designing your life will give you the actionable tools necessary for becoming unstuck and creating a more meaningful life. You will learn how to ask the right questions, eliminate old ideas that are not working and test new approaches to your life.
In this class, you will learn how to:
- Closely examine the “life story” that has brought you to where you are today.
- Shift your thinking and instead of being part of the society factory, learn how to focus on life as a journey to be experienced fully, rather than a means to an end.
- Align your ‘life’ views and ‘work’ view, because more often than not making money and having meaning in your life are not always perfectly aligned.
- Fixing dysfunctional attitudes by understanding the root of things that might be blocking you.
- Understand what gives you energy and what sucks you dry, so you can design a life that fills you up.

Fantastic content, presented and chunked out well. Very digestible, super impactful! My one piece of feedback pertains to the course page and set up, not the content: having a clear roadmap of steps to take, including the homework to be done *before* the course starts, would have been helpful. If it was there, I couldn't find it (and I'm relatively literate...); as a result, I started the course content and had to stop and scramble to add 1-2 hours of pre-work to my schedule, buried as an attachment called "Homework." Having a clear "First, do the 1-2 hour long assignment contained in the Homework file. Next, complete the videos..." would have been great for busy learners.

Amazing class! Worth your time, if you take the time to do the worksheets.

Very thought-provoking course that has influenced my life and the life of others. Great piece of work! Thank you!

I red the book and it had a very strong impact on my growth. this course reveals many aspects on which the book does not focus. Highly recommended...from my point of view, it should be a mandatory course for high school students in Italy

This is an excellent course, to get perspective of where you are in life, reflect on past success and failures to design your life at whatever stage your are at life now.

SO good. Read the book, the live class is even better!!!! Love the work these guys do.

I really enjoyed this course, the ideas are easily usable.
-
First, let me say that I enjoyed the class and appreciate all the guidance on how to look at things differently. Very valuable. Sometimes I think academia likes to make simple processes more complex than they need to be and that was evident here in a few places but mostly this was very user-friendly and really interesting. I think anyone struggling to figure out a new path or how to get unstuck from the one they're on will find this course very beneficial.

Really this content blew my Mind. Even if i heard many things before, but to hear it again and just to realize, that im "NORMAL" with my thousand Ideas and to have the Freedom of Prototyping is amazing. Also the Myths you busted was pretty helpfull. Thank you Guys. Best, actionable content for 29 Bucks. Cant wait to Prototype the Hell out of me. I was not able to make a 5 year Decision now. But i can move Forward now. Really. Again. Thank you.
