Thanks Cal, this was an amazing video. "Career serves your life" is the most poignant takeaway from this video. My dream is relatively simple. Work a remote stable job that doesn't really tie my down to one location, while being able to raise a family and not have to worry about money. My weekends would be spent hiking, taking day trips with family. Weekdays would be filled with physical activity, flexible working schedules, dinner out with friends etc.
Hi Cal, For older millineas (40 and 40+), who might not have made it happen, What would be your advice on how to structure their careers. Advice to the 40-55 bracket who probably are getting overwhelmed with new technology and stay relevant considering that they might have not the same luxury and bandwidth due to family and age constraints.
For anyone who asks that same question - "How do I figure out what I'm interested in?" The book, Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans has some exercises to help you figure that out.
This resonates as I’m a third year medical student figuring out which specialty to pursue. The high definition, specific details of what I need in life is a critical part of my decision-making process. Thank you.
Greetings from Russia (Moscow), Mr. Newport! I’ve been thinking about your ideas and find them very intellectually aligned and grateful to be able to learn from you. Thank you for sharing! Something that I thought about after I watched this video and wanted to ask other viewers: we spend 1/3 of our lives (roughly speaking) working. It means that choosing the job equals choosing the «quality» of spending 1/3 of the time of one’s life. Another 1/3 is spent in bed and the last part is time free from your job and your sleep. Would you pick daunting job that could provide for the quality of your time that is free from the job?

It may be wise to also delve into the works of Mark Manson - similar albeit different take on the same topics
so much on the point.. These is what can actually needed to people.❤
