How to Live a Meaningful Life applies design-thinking principles to the practical challenge of creating greater purpose, joy, and engagement in everyday life. Bill Burnett and Dave Evans present research-based tools for examining how individuals spend their time, identifying experiences that contribute to meaning, and making intentional adjustments without abandoning existing responsibilities or beginning life anew. The book explores wonder, coherence, flow, relationships, and community as essential elements of a meaningful life. Through reflection, experimentation, and incremental redesign, readers are encouraged to align daily choices with personal values and develop habits that strengthen connection and well-being. Rather than treating meaning as a distant achievement, the authors frame it as something that can be actively created through ordinary experiences and repeated decisions. Written for general readers seeking personal growth, greater clarity, or renewed direction, the work offers a structured and accessible approach to applying creative problem-solving methods to life planning and self-development
