The Pathless Path: Imagining a New Story For Work and Life von Paul Millerd (Zusammenfassung)

Paul thought he was on his way. From a small-town Connecticut kid
to the most prestigious consulting firm in the world, he had
everything he thought he wanted. Yet he decided to walk away and
embark on the "real work" of his life - finding the things that
matter and daring to create a life to make them happen.


This Pathless Path is about finding yourself in the wrong life,
and the real work of figuring out how to live. Through
painstaking experiments, living in different countries and the
goodwill of people from around the world, Paul pieces together a
set of ideas and principles that guide him from unfulfilled and
burned out to the good life and all of the existential crises in
between.


The Pathless Path is not a how-to book filled with “hacks”;
instead, it is a vulnerable account of Paul’s journey from
leaving a path centered around getting ahead and towards another,
one focused on doing work that matters. This book is an ideal
companion for people considering leaving their jobs, embarking on
a new path, dealing with the uncertainty of an unconventional
path, or searching for better models for thinking about work in a
fast-changing world.
