It seems like at some point, everyone hits a time where they don't enjoy their work like they used to. Even worse, maybe one finds they've gotten worse at their job instead of improving. Is there any science that backs this phenomenon up? What does this mean for those on the second half of their career? Curt is joined on this episode by Dr. Arthur Brooks, professor at Harvard University to talk about different learning styles, high achievement, and how everyone should be thinking about their purpose, both now and in the future.
Find Dr. Brooks' newest book, From Strength to Strength: Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life wherever books are sold.
