Are you someone with many talents and interests? Do you love discovery and variety? Do you enjoy solving problems?
And do you get bored - even feel trapped - at a job where there’s no more to learn?
If you answered yes, finding the right career has been discouraging. Let’s change that.
I think I know you. In fact, I’m one of you. I call us ‘Scanners.’ Some people call us
Polymaths or Renaissance people, or TMA (Too Many Aptitudes) or just multi-talented. I
wrote a book about us called Refuse to Choose. It’s been called "The owner’s manual for creative thinkers.” It’s a good book, full of career suggestions for every different type
of Scanner I could find.
But I knew there were even more great jobs out there in the big world so I asked all the
Scanners I know, “What was the best job you ever had?”
The response was fabulous! They’re still coming in! I hope they never stop! And the
answers were so unexpected. They’ll get your thinking out of a rut right away.
Here’s the first group of my favorite answers. They’ll give you fresh, unexpected ideas.
If you need a bit of inspiration to find work that will be a joy for you, this is a great
place to start!
