RE: Navigating my Way Through Life with "Too Many Interests Syndrome!"

in #psychology8 years ago

I've done some similar things. Had a secondhand bookshop; made a lot when Amazon first started allowing dealers to sell on their listings as I often had the only copy in their back catalogue, and most people had then never heard of Bookfinder or Abebooks.

But what the internet gave, the internet then took away! Many beautiful, limited edition, "rare" books were suddenly not so rare - price pressure was down down down. The money was in original ephemera.

Anyway, rambling; not sure about the small chunking (never liked the word!) as I can think top-down as well as bottom-up. I enjoy thinking across disciplines - one of my favourite TV series remains James Burke's Connections. I have written a book; some chapters were harder work than others, but got it finished!

The one puzzle that remains "ongoing" is "what am I doing here?!" :-)
