Episode #394
A personal manifesto aligns decisions with your own values and serves as a self-recruitment tool for clarity amid complexity.
Create it by collecting inspiring words from others, making them physical, and designing a format that appears where you are and motivates you.
Treat your manifesto as a living prototype and ongoing practice to build resilience and navigate failure with clarity.
So a manifesto is a statement of purpose and a script for action.
If we're not pursuing our life through our own values, we are generally following someone else's.
It needs to work for you. It needs to inspire you. It needs to excite you.
If you’re a leader, it’s easy to get stuck on a tough decision.
If you’re a parent, it’s sometimes hard to know what the right decision is.
If you’re a human, you find yourself ruminating on a tough conversation you need to have.
Not anymore!
Through the brilliant work of Stanford d.school’s Director of Community, Charlotte Burgess-Auburn, clarity of action and peace of mind is just one book away.
Charlotte is the author of “You Need a Manifesto: How to Craft Your Convictions and Put Them to Work.” She also teaches classes on the role of self-awareness in creativity and design at the Stanford Design School. Previously, she worked at the MIT Media Laboratory.
Join me and Charlotte in this episode of the #STFpod as she shares some specific steps that will make it easy for you to create your own manifesto— a simple but life-changing tool that can help you navigate life’s challenges.
