Pivot

“What you can plan is too small for you to live.”

The book is a guide to making your next career move by doubling-down on what is already working, what you are good at and feel passionate about.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

1. The first and most important thing when you want to make a pivot is to understand what your values are and what you want to get out of your next job and why.

2. Way before you would make a pivot, invest your time and energy into building a valuable network of mentors and advisers. Your future self will thank you later.

3. Try to find small, low-risk experiments such as a side hustle, a volunteer opportunity or a small project before you make your pivot, in order to get a sense of what you would be moving into.
