CPT: Design Your Life Accountability group

This group is for people who want to grow personally, better understand themselves, and explore what they want from life using Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans.

Expectation
We will work through the original book (the light blue cover) systematically, meeting in person at regular intervals to discuss the chapters and exercises, share insights, ask questions, and hold one another accountable for putting the ideas into practice.

The aim is to learn more about ourselves and one another, gain clarity about what we are looking for, and explore practical ways to build a well-lived life.

Since this group is based in Cape Town, we will meet somewhere local for a set period of time, grab a drink/coffee and work through the activities agreed upon. We'll have a start and end date so that we can navigate through the group systematically.

The Book
Everyone is expected to purchase their own copy.

There is also an accompanying workbook. The authors have written other books, but this meetup will focus specifically on the original Designing Your Life.

What This Group Is Not
This is not a counselling, coaching, or job-opportunity group, nor is it a space to promote professional services in these areas. This is not a dating group.

I am not a coach, a therapist, or a recruitment agent; I'm just a normal person, like you, looking for a way to work through this book systematically.

The goal is simply to work through the book together, support one another in the process, and see what we discover along the way.
