But the entire idea can be conveyed as a blog instead of a longwinded book which dilutes the idea. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for those reconfiguring their lives towards meaning and purpose *by T***T on 12 February 2015* In this inspiring book Pamela Slim explores how we can connect the dots in our life - how do we find the connections between our diverse accomplishments and, as we navigate and survive the world of work, how do we tell the story about our journey? Slim argues that the ability to look at things from new and critical perspectives is a fundamental skill in creating our careers. Being wedded to a career path that follows a linear trajectory, in a world where we must “plan for failure, calamity and unexpected disasters”, is not the secret to a satisfying career or life. Rather, we must consider our careers as a “body of work” - everything we create, contribute, affect and impact is a body of work. Viewing our careers in this way, means we are not restricted to a job title, or constrained to one business. It is more complex, yes, but thinking about the overarching themes in our life and how the experiences we’ve had contribute to these themes, gives our lives meaning and purpose. In her book, Slim takes us through exercises structured to understand how to build a body of work and how to sell the story of the journey that underpins it. Understanding the ideas that drive us emotionally and the change we want to create in the world provides the foundation. Defining our roots – our purpose, belief and convictions, motivates us to keep going through adversity and keep us strong and stable when we face challenges in our careers. Completing the exercises is not easy. “Surfing the fear” asks us to consider what we are afraid of and accept that pain is an inevitable part of life (but suffering is not). Truly defining what success means for us, and not falling into the trap of “success dysmorphia” (viewing your success through somebody else’s results) requires us to question conventional career advice, which Slim argues can keep us feeling trapped, defensive or guilty about our choices. Despite the discomfort that looking in the mirror in this way creates, science shows, that this is the secret to a satisfying career and life. In another brilliant book Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, Daniel Pink – one of the world’s top business thinkers states: The science shows that the secret to high performance isn't our biological drive or our reward-punishment drive but our third drive - our deep seated desire to direct our own lives, to extend and expand our abilities, and to live a life of purpose. Individuals who structure their careers around autonomy, mastery and purpose will have a powerful body of work, providing them with more choice, financial security and creative freedom. They will feel more alive, engaged, connected and excited by their work. I've ordered a copy of the this for the Head of 6th Form at my children's school - why wait until you're my age to consider your career in such an integrated and enriching way?! On a similar topic of finding purpose and meaning in your life also read Stephen Cope's The Great Work of Your Life and Zander & Zander's The Art of Possibility. Both are brilliant. As Pamela Slim says, let the creating begin. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/420231506-body-of-work](https://www.desertcart.co/products/420231506-body-of-work) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
