Welcome to week-twenty five. This week, David reflects on what it would mean to design his life by choice. How would he design it?

Excerpt:

As I prepared to get ready for my day as a designer, I realized I had never designed this day, this life, at least not with intention. This was just where I had wound up. My life was great in so many ways, and Iknew in my bones how blessed I was. It even had some elements of what I had dreamed of in my earliest memories. When did it happen, that I forgot and slipped into what showed up?

What would I design by choice? If I could start over, if I could choose my life now, how would I design it? This was the point of Verity’s assignment, was it not? Yes, I would design my life around my lifemission, if I knew what that was. I let that question sit, and walk with me as I left the coach house for the El and my day of design in Chicago.
