About book Wie Man Die Richtige Arbeit Für Sich Findet: Kleine Philosophie Der Lebenskunst (2012)
A quick read & though it regularly jumps from one job possibility to its opposite, one work personality to someone completely different, almost to a fault, like you want the damn author just to tell YOU what to do to get the job that's right for YOU, it's understandably written in this way to reach the wide array of jobseekers likely to pick up its pages & it's a worthwhile read for anyone looking for a job who wants to get as deep in a rich conversation about that job search as possible. Roman Krzanaric is one of the founding faculty members of the School of Life and in his book How to Find Fulfilling Work he explains what it means to have a fulfilling job. Stress, the loss autonomy in our work and not doing what we are meant to do are things that stand in the way of a fulfilling life. With the rise of an individual lifestyle we place more emphasis on having a job that suits us. Not a job we have because that's the trade our parents were on.Now having that freedom offers us a lot of opportunities to develop ourselves, work means more to us than just making money (although not having money is a problem). However, a majority of people in the West are dissatisfied with their jobs but lack the confidence to change, they are waiting for something to happen. Krzanaric promotes the idea that we change our career by taking action. Having a 'radical sabaticcal' where we try out other jobs, or starting to work on a new career as a sideline to our everyday job or even writing your personal job advertisement. But most important of all is to the 'act first and reflect later', because otherwise we will not move.Krzanic's book is clear and concise and offering realistic ideas to work towards a more fulfilling job, whether we are ready to take bold steps or prefer a more careful aproach. Most important of all is to start taking action, because that's the only way we might see a change in our day-to-day working life.
