Discover your unique imprint for work that makes you come alive,
fills you with meaning, joy, purpose, and possibility, then spend
the rest of your life doing it. We're all born with a certain
"imprint" for work that makes us come alive. This is your
"Sparketype (R)," your DNA-level driver of work that lets you know,
deep down, you're doing what you're here to do. Work that motivates
you, fills you with purpose and, fully-expressed in a healthy way,
becomes a main-line to meaning, flow, performance, and joy. Put
another way, work that "sparks" you. Sparked draws upon years of
research, experimentation, more than 25-million data-points
generated by over half-a-million people, and hundreds of deep-dive
conversations with luminaries from science to art to industry and
wellbeing. Award-winning author, serial wellness-industry founder,
and host of the top-ranked Good Life Project (R), Jonathan Fields,
and his team at Spark Endeavors, developed the Sparketype imprints
and methodology that is the basis of this book. In this book,
Fields and his team will help you: Discover what sparks you, what
drains you, where you stumble and come alive, so you can reclaim a
sense of direction, control, and purpose; Understand the "real"
reasons certain experiences, jobs, and roles leave you empty and
know how to make things better, without having to endure big
disruptive changes; Learn from real-world, relatable stories,
case-studies, and data-driven insights; Identify the action steps
to begin immediately transforming the way you work and live.
Sparked takes you deep into the world of the Sparketypes, revealing
an entirely new depth of insights about what makes you come alive
in work life, along with what empties you out and trips you up, so
you can avoid those life-drains. You'll discover tons of case
studies, stories, and real-world applications, creating a
comprehensive guide to help you discover what you are meant to do
and how to get started.
