Beginner’s Guide to Designing Your Life and Career Exploration
Description
These sources discuss the "Designing Your Life" framework, a method originating from a Stanford University course and book that applies design thinking principles to personal and professional development. The core idea involves identifying and reframing life problems, collecting data through activities like journaling, and generating multiple potential solutions. A key component is prototyping, which involves experimenting with different life possibilities through conversations and experiences to learn what works. The framework emphasizes that life design is an ongoing process, not a one-time event, and highlights the value of embracing failure as a learning opportunity and seeking input from others. Several sources explore the effectiveness of applying these principles to career planning and overall well-being, including a study on using a blended learning approach to teach the concepts.
