From the world’s leading thinker on innovation and New York Times bestselling author of The Innovator’s Dilemma, Clayton M. Christensen, comes an unconventional book of inspiration and wisdom for achieving a fulfilling life. Christensen’s The Innovator’s Dilemma, notably the only business book that Apple’s Steve Jobs said “deeply influenced” him, is widely recognized as one of the most significant business books ever published. Now, in the tradition of Randy Pausch’s The Last Lecture and Anna Quindlen’s A Short Guide to a Happy Life, Christensen’s How Will You Measure Your Life is with a book of lucid observations and penetrating insights designed to help any reader—student or teacher, mid-career professional or retiree, parent or child—forge their own paths to fulfillment.

Overall, a nice short book that encourages one to assess their priorities. However, it offers a few interesting ideas rather than a game changer.

I'm an atheist and generally dislike any religious lines. This book has some but nothing really bothering. A bit ironic though that such an intellectual author is so religious.

Thought provoking listen

Very great and balanced book. Christensen was my favorite Innovation Management Professor. My only remark is that he uses the same examples in all his books. This is sometimes suboptimal, yet understandable due to his research into these companies. In addition, it might actually create a clear reference for others.

Christensen is the best!

Excellent book to get your perspective and think so about your purpose. Didn't expect to hear something that I would think about, and it made sense.

Just read it...

Clayton's books are all incredibly insightful and this one no less so. However, while his previous books were all groundbreaking, this one is more of a review of his other works and how to apply them to your life instead of your business. I clearly set expectations too high and would have enjoyed it more had I not been familiar with most of what is being shared.

Good but not great
