'Helps you keep achieving - and find peace and happiness in the
process' Amy Edmondson We are living an earned life when the
choices, risks, and effort we make in each moment align with an
overarching purpose in our lives, regardless of the eventual
outcome. In his most personal and powerful work to date,
world-renowned leadership coach Marshall Goldsmith offers a better
way to approach fulfilment that goes against everything we're
taught about achievement. Taking inspiration from Buddhism,
Goldsmith reveals that the key to living the earned life, unbound
by regret, requires connecting the habit of earning rewards to
something greater than our personal successes. Goldsmith implores
readers to avoid the Great Western Disease of "I'll be happy
when...." He offers practical advice and exercises aimed at helping
us shed the obstacles that prevent us from creating fulfilling
lives. From learning to privilege your future over your present,
knowing how to weigh up opportunity and risk accurately, honing
your 'one-trick genius' and needing to earn credibility twice, the
book is packed with transformative insights and tools that will
help readers close the gap between what they plan to achieve and
what they actually get done-and avoid the trap of existential
regret, the kind that reroutes destinies and persecutes our
memories. Full of illuminating stories from Goldsmith's legendary
career as a coach to some of the world's highest-achieving leaders
and reflections on his own life, The Earned Life is a roadmap for
ambitious people seeking a higher purpose. 'Inspiring insight from
the world's top coach. Goldsmith left me tingling from the journey
of reflection I'd been taken on' Bruce Daisley
