Erwin Chua’s Reviews > Refuse to Choose!: Use All of Your Interests, Passions, and Hobbies to Create the Life and Career of Your Dreams > Status Update

"If you were interested in philosophy, logic, science, physics, astronomy, psychology, prophecy, zoology, theater, and poetry and you lived in Greece a few hundred years BC, no one would have called you a dilettante. They would have called you Aristotle."

"If you would not be forgotten as soon as you're rotten, either write things worth reading or do things worth the writing"

It's okay to lose interest in something. It means you've got your reward. Time to move on!

Just because a project isn't finished doesn't mean it is a failure. Try to list down every single things you started, it might surprise you!

Almost every scanner says "I wish I was like those people who know exactly what they want from the start." Is this true? I'm really curious about how Barbara talks about this, but I suddenly have other things to do. Gonna continue reading later.

SCANNER DAYBOOK - What an inspiration! You can write any project ideas there. Write as wild as your imagination, as detailed as possible, you should even mention your feeling when writing those ideas so that your great grandchildren or your biographer can relate to what you thought. No laundry list on the book! Just ideas!

I reread the book trying to find some supports and affirmations. It never disappoints me. Found some great quotes even on the prologue:
"You are the owner of a remarkable, multitalented brain trying to do its work in a world that doesn't understand who you are."
"No evidence that anybody told Aristote that it was bad to be interested in so many things."
