My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Why I read this book
I found this book quite by chance. Some higher power must have known I needed it though because this book has forever changed how I view myself and what I'm capable of doing in my life.
Through the exercises in this book, I have formed a plan for myself to pursue my creative interests and do it in a way that does not stress my out. By identifying what the book calls "focal points" I can devote myself to what I love doing and I no longer feel bad about cutting stuff out of my life that does not align with my focal points.
The renaissance soul
I've always had the problem of being interested in lots of different things and I've never been able to master just one thing before my attention shifts to something else. And the author of this book not only explains the thought process behind this but also gives me solutions to change my life.
I am a Renaissance Soul and I will always be a Renaissance Soul. I will always want to pursue multiple projects at once, even if they don't relate to each other. I'm taking action to pursue my creative interests and I'm okay with not being an expert in anything.
What about you? Have you always felt lost when people asked you what you're interested in? If so, you may be a Renaissance Soul. Please read this book! It will change how you view yourself!
