Open your Daybook and your copy of Refuse to Choose, Part Two. Get ready to look one more time at all the Life Design Models and all the careers for every type of Scanner.
Now, without any regard for the type or types you may be, try to bring together the Life Design Model that feels best for you.
Then see if you can find (or try on) the best career for yourself.
You need a warning, because you are a Scanner: Don’t worry about getting these absolutely right. And don’t fret about getting only one choice. This is an exploration, not a contract you must sign. What’s important is to trust your impulses at the moment you’re doing this exercise.
When you’re willing to try on actual choices, you’ll find yourself becoming more attuned to your instincts and imagination. But don’t do this exercise again until you really want to. It’s not a physical exercise, and you’re not building a muscle.
The lists of Life Design Models and suggested careers are also online, where you may have left a comment or two on them: Double Agent – Sybil – Plate Spinner – Serial Specialist – Serial Master – Jack-of-All-Trades – Wanderer – Sampler – High-Speed Indecisive
When you’ve completed the Life Design Model and the best career, make a list of the best three Scanner Tools for you. Remember, these tools, like the Life Design Models and the best careers, can be found at the end of every chapter in Part Two or here online: Double Agent – Sybil – Plate Spinner – Serial Specialist – Serial Master – Jack-of-All-Trades – Wanderer – Sampler – High-Speed Indecisive
I suggest you share your responses with each other in the Comments. You’ll learn even more when you explain why you made your choices and learn how your fellow Scanners made theirs.
I hope that, more than ever, this final exercise will confirm how lucky you are to be a Scanner and what a rich, enjoyable life you can expect to lead.
