Stay open to unlimited future possibilities

from Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know by Adam M. Grant

How to Apply This

  1. Look at your current position and plan one step ahead to keep open to currently unknown possibilities
    Are you following an unfulfilling path? Have you reached a learning plateau in your role or workplace and need a change?  What can you do to move forward or change direction right now?

  2. As you approach any life transition ask people what they wish they’d known before they went through that experience
    Whether it’s a first job, a second marriage, or a third child, ask other people and benefit from their mistakes or helpful actions.

  3. Build a sense of purpose by taking actions to enhance your learning or your contribution to others
    Consider joining a new club or starting a new project which builds your skills and increases meaning and belonging.

  4. Test different identities to see if they align with your own interests, skills, and values
    Identify people you admire within or outside your field and observe or experience what they actually do at work: through interviews, job shadowing, sample projects, etc.
