Book Description
"I challenge you to make a difference in the world, to reach higher and farther than you ever imagined. I challenge you to start something." -- Tiger Woods, from the foreword Are you ready for a challenge? Are you ready to make a real difference in your life, and the world around you? You can do it even if you're not Tiger Woods. You can be a winner at school, and with your friends, your family, your team. You can be the superstar of your own life. And you can start today. Tiger didn't start out as a champion. But his father Earl taught him unforgettable lessons about dreaming big, reaching goals, and believing with all his heart that anything is possible. He showed Tiger that anyone can make a difference in the world by reaching out and caring about others. And now Tiger's dad is sharing those lessons and ideas with you, so you can be a champion at whatever you do. Earl Woods and the Tiger Woods Foundation want you to Start Something. In this book you'll find dozens of ways you can start something new, and make the world a better place one step at a time. Some are about action, and some will just give you something to think about. Help a little kid clean up a park • settle an argument • write down one thing each day that you're proud of • donate school supplies to a needy school • ask your parents about their day • include the kid who always gets left out • refuse to give up • and much more... Try a few or try them all. Just try. Dare to set an example that others can follow. Dare to be great. Dare to set goals that only you can achieve. Packed with Tiger-tested advice and creative ideas for helping others, this book offers powerful insight into how you can build the kind of confidence that makes Tiger great, create goals that can help you make your way in the world, and take practical steps when you find yourself feeling overwhelmed. As Earl writes, "You are a miracle, and you can make miracles happen. Celebrate yourself, for all the things that make you special and unique. Remember: Anyone can be part of the pack, but there is only one of you."

Book Description
Welcome to my book about how to start something new in difficult times throughout the chapters of your WorkLife Story. Here is a preview of what’s inside, along with the main ideas and the meaning behind these. WorkLife is our life at work, where we spend one third of our lives. It is also the impact our work has on our life outside of work, and the impact our life outside of work has on our work. All areas of our life in and out of work are so intrinsically linked, they cannot be separated, nor do I believe should they. I believe WorkLife needs to be considered holistically. There will be times in your WorkLife when you will need to make changes. When you will be required to start something new. This may be brought about by difficult times. Sometimes this need to start something new will come from external influences – situations and conditions outside of your control. Sometimes this need to start something new will come from within yourself – a sense of feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, unmotivated. Sometimes you will be able to anticipate change coming and take time to plan to navigate it, in starting something new. Other times you will have adapt to change quickly. At all times you will find that you have much of what you need within you to start something new, and what you don’t have, you will find a way of getting, in even the most difficult of times. In this book I tell five stories: 1. WorkLife Longevity Brings About a New WorkLife: John’s story of how when having retired too early, he found a way to carve out a new WorkLife that allowed him to do what was important in and out of the workplace. 2. It Was the Worst of Times and Then it Got Even Worse: The Walton’s story of living through the most difficult times in history. 3. Willingness to Change is a Strength: Tara’s story of how not long after losing her husband, she lost her job, and how through being open to change, she was able to come through a difficult time. 4. How a Side-Hustle Saved My WorkLife and MyWell-Being: Saoirse’s story of how starting something new helped her to recover from severe burnout. 5. How a Side-Hustle Can Supercharge Your Skill Set and Effectively Future Proof Your WorkLife: Saoirse’s story of how she combined her diverse skills to create something that was truly her own. I share the exercises that helped to work through these challenging situations to resolve the dilemmas. I present these exercises as the following assignments for you to work through: Navigate the In-Between Assignment This assignment is to help you to navigate those in-between times when you’re starting something late or dealing with something difficult. Develop a Practice of Continuous Self-Feedback Assignment This assignment is to help you to use active pauses to be open to experiences. Develop a Practice of Insightful and Effective Self-Questioning Assignment This assignment is to help you to pay attention to opportunities and know the right questions to ask to make the most of them. Maze of Change Assignment This assignment is to help you to keep moving in a new direction. Use Reframing to Shift from a Negative to a Positive Mindset Assignment This exercise is to help you to acknowledge what is possible. Four Steps to Designing Your WorkLife Transitions around Investing in a Diverse Set of Skills Assignment This assignment is to help you to make transitions by managing your learning, growth and development in and out of the workplace.
