Chapter 11, Exercise 1: Try the Sybil Tools

Read all about Sybils, then turn to the last page of the chapter for the Scanner Tool Kit items that best help them. Try at least one of the tools, two if this chapter describes you.

Here are the Scanner Tools recommended for Sybils:

  • Tool 1: Your Scanner Planner on page 146
  • Tool 2: Your 15-Month Goal Planner on page 150
  • Tool 3: Your Rotating Priorities Board on page 152
  • Tool 4: Avocation Station on page 154
  • Tool 5: Your Kitchen Timer on page 155
  • Tool 6: 20 or 30 Three-Ring Binders on page 157
  • Tool 7: Project Boxes on page 157
  • Tool 8: Your Scanner Daybook on page 140
  • Tool 9: The Setup on page 69

Tell us which tool(s) you chose and give us a review. If you found it helpful, you might also want to give it a page of its own in your Daybook. After you share your experience, read the rest of the comments and reply to a few.

Please be sure to subscribe to future comments on this exercise or to check back here on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning for new ones.

Use the Next link (up above the title) to continue on to Exercise 2: Picture a Sybil Life Design and Career after you are done adding your comments.

Week 8: Are You a Sybil?

We will read Chapter Eleven, Are You a Sybil? this week. It’s 20 pages. A Sybil is one of the Cyclical Scanner Types, with ongoing interests. Sybils often cannot choose among their different interests and dreams, so they end up stuck, unable to choose among them. If that’s you, you will learn how to get unstuck and start enjoying all of them.

After we read Chapter Eleven, we will try some of the tools that belong in the Sybil’s tool kit and consider the life designs and careers that are a good fit. It’s much more important to discover, through trying them, which tools, life designs, and careers fit you than it is to stick a label on yourself, so check them out, even if you’re sure you are one of the Sequential Types.

Here is what we will be doing this week:
