All Over the Place: Coaching and Support for Scanners

Throughout our lives, many of were are asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up? What’s your major?” And, now we ’re asked, “What do you do?” All of these questions contain an underlying message, an assumption that we will choose one thing to focus on for our careers, our livelihood. Although some people (sometimes from a young age) were clear on what they wanted to be, I’ve found that this is rare. But, some of us continue to look longingly and wistfully at those few people who focused on, pursued and created a singular career.

Perhaps you were designed differently. Do you:

• have too many interests to ever choose just one?
• become bored with every new career you’ve chosen or considered?
• remain indecisive because you are overwhelmed by the potential choices or just don’t trust your own instincts?
• start new things with gusto, then run out of steam leaving behind unfinished projects?
• keep changing your mind about what you want to do – and feel like you are doing “nothing?”
• remain uncommitted to a career path because it might be the “wrong” one

You might be a SCANNER – someone who would be considered a Renaissance person in a different era. The term “Scanner” was first created by Barbara Sher in her book, I Could Do Anything If I Only Knew What It Was. Her new groundbreaking book, Refuse to Choose provides descriptions of different types of Scanners and what makes them tick – as well as tips to creatively organize yourself to gain a sense of progress and satisfaction.
