9. Being a scanner
10. My 15 minute timer (which I forgot to start)

I am a scanner. A scanner in the description that Barbara Sher has defined (check out the book excerpt from "Refuse to Choose" here: http://www.careerknowhow.com/improvement/choose.htm). I am a scanner. And I've had a day where I did not want to be a scanner. I have so many interests, I'm working on several projects at once, specs for a new flash website program, ideas for a new invention, music composition, pre-production for a short commercial, and PBS series, and editing home movies into collages, writing scripts and stories and articles, creating art, creating a vision board, physics equations and theory, astronomy, Taoism and Tai Chi, etc. (Which is why I love my 15 minute timer). Today I wanted to be excited about only one subject. I wanted to be a person that delves into a speciality. It seems so much easier to want and love to do that ONE THING!

I know what it is. It's me not accepting myself as who and what I am. I will never be happy with just ONE THING to do. I will get bored, I know that. I am a scanner. I will always be out scanning the horizon for that new interest that I'll get excited about. That new project. I am a scanner. I am grateful that I am a scanner and I love and accept myself.

That's my 15 minutes.
