Chapter 15, Exercise 3: Picture a Serial Master Life Design and Career

Take ten minutes to picture yourself living the Repertoire Life Design Model described on page 194. What would be great about it? What would it be missing for you?

Now do the same, for ten minutes, with one of the careers for Serial Masters:

  • Talent Agent
  • Career/life coach
  • Athletic coach
  • Teacher
  • Motivational speaker

If you are an unsatisfied Serial Master, create a Backward Planning Flowchart for moving toward one of these careers.

Write in your Daybook how each of these felt and what great ideas came up while you were daydreaming about them. In a new comment on this page, tell us which ones you tried on and what you discovered about them and about yourself. After you share your experience, read the rest of the comments and reply to a few. Who are the Serial Masters in this group?

Chapter 15, Exercise 2: Try the Serial Master Tool

Read Chapter 15 , then turn to the last page for the Scanner Tool Kit items that best help Serial Masters. Try at least one of the tools, two if this chapter describes you.

Only one of the Scanner Tools is recommended for Serial Masters, and it’s a very familiar one:

  • Tool 1: Your Scanner Daybook

In your own Daybook, write about a time (or more, if you’re a Serial Master) when you pushed beyond your personal limits to do something important to you. After you share your experience, read the rest of the comments and reply to a few.
