Description

This series, I'm sharing insights from my book Work/Life Flywheel.In this episode, I discuss why we're moving to an era of the multi-stage life, and why that requires us to adapt our view of learning.Chapter Summary:An obsession with winning will hold you back, so it's essential to reframe success.Rather than comparing yourself to others, focus your energy on creating a work/life that gives you purpose and in which you feel like you're making progress.A longer, multi-stage life means more people will start their own businesses, develop portfolio careers and develop broader networks.As well as formal training, staying open-minded to new experiences and discovering new perspective accelerates your learning.Think about your approach to learning like elite sportspeople do about training and coaching – it should be highly personalised.Become autodidactic and use systems to keep you on track even when creativity or motivation falter.Keep your eyes open for new business opportunities based on problems you experience - how could you help solve them for others?Take advantage of communities to help your development and then pay it back to people earlier in their journey.Book Ollie to speak with your teamOllie's LinkedInFuture Work/Life NewsletterWork/Life Flywheel: Harness the work revolution and reimagine your career without fear, is out now.

But we also know that to make the changes to a more flexible and adaptive multi-stage life, we need to be bold and courageous. In this inspiring book, Henderson shows the foundations for this courage and shares the stories of those who have created momentum and energy in their working life.” Hosted on Acast.
