Are you falling behind on the reading and exercises? This is your catch-up week. I want to see all of you post something this week, wherever you are in the assignments. Or if you’re in a chapter that’s not helpful, jump up to this chapter and post here. This is your chance to connect with other Scanners and too many of you are lurking in the shadows letting others carry the discussion. We need to hear from you, and so do others who are still working on earlier chapters and thinking they are the only one.
This week, we will read only Chapter Eight, I Never Finish Anything. It’s just 16 pages, and it wraps up Part One of the book. We have just two exercises this week, and the first one is about the feeling we have when we don’t want to finish a project. If you’re feeling that way about the Book Club, I hope you will hang in until next week, at least. Our format changes in Part Two. Next week we’ll have a quiz to help you figure out which type of Scanner you are, and we will have a bonus exercise from Barbara, one that is not in the book. But first, this easy little chapter with a really important (and guilt-smashing) message about finishing what we start.
We have just these two exercises this week, plus an opportunity to reflect on what we’ve learned about not finishing from this chapter.
