Refuse to Choose

 I have purchased Refuse To Choose by Barbara Cher from Amazon and it is so illuminating.  It talks about Scanners and helps them to understand that their's is a great way of being.

The first thing that Barbara Cher recommends is buying a Daybook within which you can start to chart all your ideas.  The aim is to get into the essence of being a Scanner without shame or embarassement.  This book is aimed at being a celebration of who you are.

I went out today and purchased a Daybook and am really looking forward to using it.

The premise behind the book is that scanners should plan to do everything that they want.  Much of what the book talks about goes against the grain of conventional wisdom.  Yes, for me its inspiring, affirming and very, very exciting.

I loved the book too, and find it very affirming!

There are indeed some areas that are more explored on the forums or in other books or forums - eg I find GTD-style of file organizing better than binders I had before!

Overall, Barbara Sher is awesomely inspiring, love the Ideaparties on Twitter too!! :)
