How To Use Turning Points To Start Something Different And Better

Welcome to my book about how to use turning points to start something different and better throughout the chapters of your WorkLife Story. Here is a preview of what's inside, along with the main ideas and the meaning behind these.

WorkLife is our life at work, where we spend one third of our lives. It is also the impact our work has on our life outside of work, and the impact our life outside of work has on our work. All areas of our life in and out of work are so intrinsically linked, they cannot be separated, nor do I believe should they. I believe WorkLife needs to be considered holistically.

Turning points are times when a significant change takes place that affects a person's future, causing them to pause and rethink what's important to them in their WorkLife what they want and need to do differently to make it better.

In this book I tell four stories:

1. Life is Too Short Not to Be Living it Fully: Carmel's story of how the loss of her brother led her to reevaluate her WorkLife, to think through what was important in her day-to-day living and the legacy she wanted to work towards leaving behind.

2. How Overcoming a Significant Challenge Led to a New WorkLife:Jason's story of how a debilitating illness led him to develop a new WorkLife in line with what he enjoyed doing, that honoured his values.

3. Be Grateful to the Naysayers, Allow Them to Motivate You, to Prove Them Wrong, When They Say Something Can't Be Done: Michaels' story of how his dream to do something new and different was crushed by unsolicited advice before he even got started, and how by surrounding himself with people who believed that changes can take place even in the toughest of circumstances allowed him to achieve his dream.

4. New Year's Eve Tales of Turning Points Stories of Acts of Kindness that Led to Building a Community of Caring and Connectivity & The WorkLife Book Club: Stories from people who were brought together by shared experiences, turning points, and acts of kindness which led to connectivity and community.

I share the exercises that helped to work through these challenging situations to resolve the dilemmas. I present these exercises as the following assignments for you to work through:
