Refuse to Choose!

Use All of Your Interests, Passions, and Hobbies to Create the Life and Career of Your Dreams

De: Barbara Sher

Narrado por: Pam Ward

Don’t know what to do with your life? Drawn to so many things that you can’t choose just one? New York Times bestselling author Barbara Sher has the answer—do EVERYTHING!

The author of Wishcraft and I Could Do Anything If Only I Knew What It Was..., Barbara Sher became famous for her extraordinary ability to help people define and achieve their goals. What Sher discovered is that some individuals simply cannot, and should not, decide on a single path; they are genetically wired to pursue many areas. Sher calls them “Scanners”—people whose unique type of mind does not zero in on a single interest but rather scans the horizon, eager to explore everything they see.

In this groundbreaking book, listeners will learn

• what’s behind their “hit and run” obsessions,
• when (and how) to finish what they start,
• how to do everything they love, and
• what type of Scanner they are (and which tools they need to do their very best work).

Validating

As someone who has many interest I get overwhelmed! This book has completely changed my perceptive of myself and my desire to live out different dreams. It feels doable now.

Thank you!

This answered so many of my in we questions and left me excited to live again.

Life Changing Validation

This book had me in tears. Finally I felt seen and understood. If you’ve struggled with so many passions you don’t know what to do, read this.

ADHD? Required!

A really high resolution brakedown of various Squirl Syndrome Scenarios. Loads of wisdom and counsel for better management and understanding of distractions and drives. Wonderful!!

I’m loving it!

This book is changing my life. I feel like it’s ok to be myself now, and I have so much clarity about what to do with my life. Such wisdom in this book.

Worth a Listen, Especially for Creatives

As a creative person I find myself pursuing new curiosities regularly. I have often sought to understand my creative compulsions in a way that honors them and honors me.

Especially in the later chapters of this book, there is a lot of really great advice for how to different kinds of creatively curious people can structure their lives and also structure of the ways that they think about — and archive — their multipassionate curiosities.

I am tempted to gift this book to most of the creative people I know.

I know another reviewer took exception to the voice of the narrator, but I feel like that review threw the baby out with the bathwater — especially given that the review expressed they weren’t going to listen to the actual book. I have listened to other audiobooks read by Barbara Sher, and this narrator’s voice wasn’t different enough to deter me from the tremendous value I receive from listening to Barbara Sher encouraging me to be the kind of creative person I am, and to find ways to fully enjoy the experience.

Loved Knowing I’m a Scanner

This book is great, must read if you desire more out of life and need tools to help make that happen that are easy to do and understand.

Wonderful read

My, my, what a delight! I believe I may have finally found my tribe - curious misfits, fireballs, creative geniuses!

Immensely Practical

This book is the single most practical book I've ever read about getting your life together as someone with raging ADHD. I think it might just change my life

Couldn't get enough!
