Why this book?
Over your lifetime, you will spend at least 80,000 hours at work. If that thought makes you feel utterly depressed, you’re far from alone.
According to an international study, only a small minority of people worldwide (15 %) are engaged at work. If disliking one’s job was a physical illness, authorities would have categorized it as a national and international emergency by now!
If you can’t wait for the weekend (or retirement) to come, you will want to read “The Work You Love Revolution.”
Clearly, meaningful work is extremely
valuable to people. So much so that according to one American study, on average people would trade in about $21,000 a year
in exchange for meaningful work (which is more than they spend on housing!).
When I work with clients on this individually, they often invest $2000 or more
to have me help them create work they love.
Even if we only work together for a month, that is $400
that my clients are happy to spend on their quest to have meaningful work.
Since individual coaching is not something that is financially accessible to everyone, I am so happy that I can now offer my help in a way that everyone CAN afford.
This ebook summarizes a lot of the work I have done over the last half decade or so and it feels so good to be able to share with you how you can create work you love…
… at a fraction of the costs of a Starbucks coffee (1.11 USD, to be precise… or the equivalent in your currency)!
… at a fraction of the costs of a Starbucks coffee (1.11 USD, to be precise… or the equivalent in your currency)!
This book is for you if any of the following apply to you:
- you hate Mondays,
- you experience your job as soul-crushing or meaningless,
- you feel like you’re wasting your skills and talents,
- you aren’t making the difference you want to make,
- you’re at a crossroad in your career and can’t figure out what to do next,
- you realize that don’t have unlimited time and you’re starting to worry: “If I don’t do it now, will I ever do it?”
If any of these apply to you, please read this ebook. It’s not your fault that you are in this situation, and it is definitely possible for you to get out of it!
You can have work that you really love and get paid well for it!
The bad news is that it’s not simple to get to that place (if it were easy, everyone would already have done it). That is because of the money-or-meaning dilemma prevalent in our culture.
Simply put, meaningful work doesn’t tend to pay well. This leaves people feeling like they need to choose between safe, but unfulfilling work or doing work they love, but being financially precarious.
However, there is a better choice and that is to start your own personal Work You Love Revolution!
This book reveals how to do just that, without having you jeopardize your financial security or take crazy risks.
Here's what you will get from this step-by-step guide:
- discover how YOU can do what you love and get paid for it,
- clarity on what you REALLY want out of life so you can move into a direction that will make you happy,
- extra ENERGY and INSPIRATION because you are starting to live your passion and purpose (even if you don’t yet know what it is),
- a sense of relief because you finally know how to SAFELY make these changes in your life (even if you don’t have a lot of time), and
- feel so proud of yourself because you’re finally taking MASSIVE ACTION to turn your dreams into reality!
Stop wasting your valuable time, skills and talents and start building your legacy! Because life is too short to have work you don’t love.
More endorsements from early readers:
“Berenike has written a beautiful book. I would recommend it to all my friends and family unsure or uninspired about the work they want to do. I've read a lot of business books, since I've had an entrepreneurial spirit since I was a child. Berenike's book is unique in that it is more positive, conversational and actionable. It gives the right amount of information, diving deep but not to the point of overstating or overcomplicating things. Berenike puts common constraints into context and helps break down the priorities we need to succeed.
I think for someone who really needs to make a quick change this book is a perfect fit.
Many people want to learn how to bring love and purpose to their work lives but don't have the space to bring a cerebral focus or anything overly complicated. This book is perfect for that. It's fun and full of personality and inspiring. Even if you do feel love for your work already.”
Mera Baid Kaur, Writer, Creativity & Family Wellness Coach
"If you're like me, work and love are two separate entities in life. "The Work You Love Revolution" dares you to bring them together, intertwining them like a double helix. From the beginning, Berenike lets you know this is a process to go all in on. There are no shortcuts for the transformation you're about to undergo, but she explains and takes you through the process with confidence and lots of exercises to solidify what you've learned along the way. Her background as a coach who uprooted her own life to start doing meaningful work she loves gives you an honest approach to count on through this personal and revolutionary change process.
This book offers the potential to shift society on its axis and unleash an army of people driven by meaning in their work, providing a more complete and fulfilling experience for us all and restoring our fundamental desire to have meaning in our lives. Unlike other books where the big transformation promised on the cover is somehow rushed through in the very last chapter, "The Work You Love Revolution" starts that transformation in the middle of the book with plenty of exercises to ramp up your work quest and time for troubleshooting. The amount of guidance you'll find is both necessary and a godsend.
You'll come across things you might not expect from a book of this sort, such as the role your vocabulary plays in contributing to stress and linking that to the bigger picture of where you're currently at and how your relationship with work can falter or thrive. Early on, Berenike gives you her passion roadmap to implement the secret ingredients of work you love, which is only one way she guides you through your transformation. She also addresses concerns about income when taking a risky leap, as well as time management in transitioning from work you're not in love with to work you love. You'll also find plenty of examples from her life and situations her clients have faced to make the process more relatable and less abstract.
Finally, one of the most incredible things about reading "The Work You Love Revolution" is that Berenike manages to take your personality into consideration and pulls this off even though it's a book rather than a face-to-face conversation with her. Exercises help you tap into who you are, what you want, and more to shape your journey into a successful one. You'll be challenged to dig deeper on what you really want. This transformation is big, so it needs to resonate. Finding that deep connection makes all the difference and Berenike makes it clear what the differences between what you want and what you REALLY want are. She sets the stage for you to go for what you REALLY want - extremely satisfying! I highly recommend this to anyone looking to change their work to align with what they're passionate about."
Taylor Tracy, Outreach Coordinator at MIT
"Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could make the income you need to make AND love what you do at the same time? In our culture we talk about it as some far flung dream. Berenike eloquently shows not only WHY this is totally within our reach, but also provides some of the HOW. Start reading)—there's no time left to waste on meaningless things!"
