A Scanner’s Life
Many interests, the need to learn and the inability to stay with just one subject, have only one career, or even live in the same country forever. That’s me. I’m a Scanner.
You may also have heard the terms multi-potentialite, Jack-of-all-trades, or I guess Jill-of-all-trades and Renaissance Person. what they mean is that I am different because my brain works differently.
If you have always felt like the odd one out, if you tried to pick a career, focus on one subject and finish projects but “failed”, welcome! You are a Scanner too and I have great news for you! There is absolutely nothing wrong with us. No, we are not flakey quitters.
We are built differently and have needs most people do not understand. Being a Scanner is a superpower! We learn much faster than the average person and can hyperfocus on any topic that interests us. If you want to know more, check out the blog, sign up for the newsletter or read about me.

Mindfulness
I learned about mindfulness over two decades ago. Since then, I tried to use the technique many times. But just like meditation, I failed miserably because I completely misunderstood what mindfulness is and what it is for. Luckily, I spent some time diving into...
