What if work isn't just something you do, but a portal to a life where you can feel fully alive?
In Good Work, Paul Millerd invites us to question everything we thought we knew about work. Paul traces his winding path through candid personal stories: from chasing elusive "good jobs," to desperately seeking escape from worldly responsibilities, to an unexpected discovery that changed everything. Sitting at a table halfway around the world, a profound question emerged: What if work doesn't have to suck? What if it can be the center of a life well-lived?
This isn't a book about climbing the corporate ladder or "crushing it" as a creator or entrepreneur. It's an exploration of what happens when you dare to question everything you've been told about work and its role in our life. Millerd shares his journey of opening himself up to questions like:
- What truly constitutes "good work" beyond a job?How might embracing uncertainty lead to fulfillment?What lies beyond "losing your edge"? Is there a new source of motivation?Can you prioritize family without sacrificing opportunity?What is the most ambitious life path? Is it external or internal?
What began as an escape attempt became a mission to redefine work. Good Work challenges conventional wisdom, offering not a step-by-step guide, but a companion for those brave enough to question the status quo and seek a more ambitious life path.
