Thinking Through Refuse to Choose: 101 things every Scanner should know
Are you a Scanner? These are people with a different (and often misunderstood) type of mindset: they’re curious and smart, always happiest when learning something new. But no matter how promising a path may appear, Scanners can never give up their love of exploring. And therein lies the problem: despite their passionate engagement with the world and their love of life, Scanners are unable to decide on one path, and they’re often afraid that there’s something horribly wrong with them. It’s usually forgotten that such people were once admired for their wide range of knowledge, even called Renaissance thinkers. Now they’re often labeled as immature, lazy dilettantes by a culture that prizes specialization above all else. I wrote this 99-cent Kindle book (with two great helpers) to highlight the top 101 takeaways from my book, Refuse to Choose! Use All of Your Interests, Passions, and Hobbies to Create the Life and Career of Your Dreams. Use it as an introduction or as a reminder after you read the book. Purchase this Kindle book here.
Find a Success Team or Become a Sher Success Teams Leader
Isolation is the dream killer. Find your people in a Sher Success Team and learn how to identify and achieve your dreams in Barbara’s 8-Week Workshop for new teams. We always need more Sher Success Teams leaders, so if helping others go after their dreams is your dream, there’s a business in a kit waiting for you, a Leader’s Kit with everything you need to run that same workshop.

Dear Barbara,
you are truly someone I look up to! Thanks for your terrific work and your inspiration!
Cheers Doro
Thank you, Doro. What a lovely note. I appreciate it.
I would like to attend to any of your courses. You are great! my inspiration 🙂
Can’t wait!
I’ll be watching for the list!! Thanks for the heads-up!
Can’t wait!
Hi Barbara,
I’m really interested in the online write/speak course. Cannot wait for it to become available.
Regards
Sarah
We’ve got your name on the list now to notify the moment WriteSpeak Online is ready to go live, Sarah.
Please add me to this list to be notified of the write/speak course as well. Thank you!
Consider yourself added, Melanie!
Please add me too – I listened to one of Barbara’s interviews on web radio and now I realize that this course is much less of what I expected and much more of what I want
Added!
Ich suche Frauen und Männer, die wie ich (55) an einer Uni (Tübingen) im Wintersemester studieren wollen!
Translation from Google Translator (not so great, but a lot better than nothing):
Seeking men and women who, like me want to study (55) at a university (Tuebingen) in the winter semester!
I guess it’s only meant for German speakers. Betcha $5 the courses aren’t in English. And it’s a shame because I’ve been to Tuebingen and I’ve never seen a more enchanting place anywhere. The buildings, still apparently (all of them!) are in use but they appear to have been built before (or shortly after) Columbus accidentally discovered America. I went into their museum – small but beautifully set up – and saw tiny carvings of animals 30,000 years old. Like cave paintings, the work is just brilliant. I’m looking at a poster on my wall of one of the carvings now, a horse. It doesn’t get any more beautiful than that. Maybe it doesn’t matter if you don’t speak German. 🙂
Hi Barbara,
any news on a Coaching Course in Berlin?
Thanks!
Not yet, Luisa. But don’t stop asking, or I’ll forget!
😉
Yes, indeed, Luisa! You’re the first to know (outside of the Frankfurter Ring office staff). The new site isn’t up yet. You can go to the old page and email them. They’ll know what to do.
Thank you!
I am very excited, and I have already written o the Frankfurter Ring. Very much looking fwd to the info. Now that a course is going to be available in Berlin, everything is going to be easier. Can’t wait! (Like everybody else who’s interested in this…)
Oh. It’s not in Berlin, Luisa. I totally forgot that’s what we were talking about. (Was it? Is that what you meant?) I just decided I would do one more course, and it seemed like a big enough deal by itself. Hope I haven’t disappointed you.
Hello Barbara! Glad to know you’ll be offering courses here. I’d love to help out, and perhaps even facilitate a course!
