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.
