The New American Dream

The New American Dream is about the pursuit of interestingness, not
happiness. A career filled with variety, rather than defined by conventional
paths to power and prestige, is what gives us satisfaction in the long run.
This book is a blueprint for choosing a path of lifelong learning and total
engagement, every step of the way. You will learn: + How to step off the
corporate ladder and pursue opportunities that make your life more
interesting + How just being yourself is the surest way to win the rewarding
career you seek + Ways to reinvigorate your current work environment with
new meaning Despite what you may have been taught about "paying your dues"
before you get to begin enjoying life, you can get up each day excited to do
what you do. You can have a job and still have time for family and outside
passions. You can have a career filled with intellectual challenge, physical
challenge and emotional challenge - not later, but right now.
