But the stuff I've been studying recently has really helped. I hope this helps you too. If you know anyone else multi passionate, struggling to pick one thing, or decide on a niche, please send them my way. So I was thinking the other day about the idea of taking on many projects, and I remembered the first time Ilearning the word “pivot”. I was like 8 years old maybe. My Dad was coaching me in basketball and he was showing me the rules of the game.When you pick the ball up you have to keep one foot screwed to the ground, but otherwise you can move around. What a great metaphor for life.I've come to appreciate the power of this word pivot when it comes to life. Once you have some safety & security (aka the foundation of wellness and self care), then feel free to go wild and try things out.The reality is we can be scared of change, or we can find joy in change.I think the scariest thing today is that this change can happen super fast.A pivot is about changing direction, reorienting yourself to face a new path. I suppose this appreciation is similar to what my friend Paul talks about in his book “The Pathless Path”.A willingness to re-imagine how we see life as a lot more random and unpredictable in ways.Instead of a straight, linear journey down one highway, you might find some joy you wouldn't have discovered otherwise by switching roads, or even vehicles all together.Each pivot, or new path is a chance to discover new parts of you, or those you serve.The Reality of Modern LifeIt might seem difficult to believe you can completely reinvent yourself. But the reality is less and less of society is guaranteed these days. As we move further away from a predictable schedule and work style society of the factory days to a much more interconnected, crazy, creative world, we can't really predict much.Visualizing Life's JourneyLife milestones used to be pretty contained to a few major moments. Graduation, securing a career, buying a home, marriage, parenting, and well retirement.But now, instead of five or six moments, we might have 20 or 30. A midlife crisis doesn't really need to be a thing. By midlife these days you could already have had multiple companies, traveled the world and collaborated with hundreds of people around the globe. Embracing ChangeIn today's world, we often feel pressure to find one true calling. But the stories of people who did many things reminds us it's okay to take a side road, or change direction all together. This could be in sequence, like a career change. It could be simultaneous like playing music at night and running an email newsletter by day.It could be micro, like switching from X to Instagram as your go to social media platform to post to. Or it could be macro like becoming a graphic designer instead of a podcaster.Insights from Barbara SherAs a multi-passionate person who struggles with things like “finding a niche” or “focusing” Barbara Sher's book, "Refuse to Choose!" is really helpful for feeling safe to make a pivot. For feeling sane instead of psycho. Man she's another person I wish I could interview.She calls us "Scanners," people with multiple interests and passions who often feel pressured to pick one path but just can not!She encourages embracing all your interests and seeing this as a strength.According to her, allowing yourself to pivot and explore different passions while controlling the chaos just enough leads to vitality.You know what I love telling people? That most people get this full saying wrong: “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes is better than a master of one.”Famous Real-Life Examples of PivotsLet's look at some famous real-life examples of pivots. And note these are just the major changes these folks made. They actually have a ton of other passion projects, too many to list.Arnold SchwarzeneggerA classic example of someone who successfully pivoted multiple times.From a Mr.Olympia bodybuilder to a wildly successful actor and eventually getting into politics.Martha StewartShe began her career as a stockbroker on Wall Street but later pivoted to become a successful caterer. This venture led her to write her first cookbook, launching her into the world of publishing. And overall she continued to build a massive empire with hundreds of business pillars.Ken JeongThis one is my kid's favorite. Ken initially pursued a career in medicine, becoming a licensed physician. However, his passion for comedy and acting led him to pivot big time. He began performing stand-up comedy and eventually became a superstar in TV and movie. Dwayne Johnson“The Rock" began his career as a football player, then professional wrestler. He pivoted to acting, where he is one of the most beloved, highly paid actors ever. Not content with performing, he also ventured into business, launching many successful ventures.Snoop DoggStarting as a rapper, Snoop quickly became a prominent figure in the Hip Hop industry. His smooth voice and unique style brought him fame, but he didn't stop there. He pivoted into acting, and then big time into business. But the most fun thing? The dude is competing in track and field in his mid fifties!Focus Is Important TooNow let me just mention something quickly. This is not a public service announcement for “not finding focus”. This doesn't mean you need to make pivots. Focusing is exactly what many people need. A single, predictable path is helpful to many of you. What this is, is a reminder that for those of us who struggle to go super niche, or pick just one thing, you really can make big changes relatively quickly.That we shouldn't feel guilty for wanting a change. Life's literally too short for that shit. Life can be a straight line from birth to death, or a squiggly one, with a lot of twists and turns. You get to choose.**For the full written version of the episode see the transcript. FOLLOW JustinInstagram – @JustKeepLearning.CaYouTube –@justkeeplearningpodcastTwitter – @JustinNolan_JKLTiktok – @justkeeplearning.caPinterest – JustKeepLearningcaFacebook – JustKeepLearningLinkedIn – Justin I'm so happy you found this podcast.

Hey, Maverick. It's me, Goose. Are you looking around the room and wondering who is the best of the best? Me, too. I'm thinking it might be the rep working 65 hours and making 25 calls a day but I could be wrong. For sure, top gun sales reps have specific traits, habits, and characteristics that others don't. If we are to buzz the tower and make the sales manager spill his coffee everywhere, we probably should listen to Bill Farquharson and Kelly Mallozzi. Their Short Attention Span Sales podcast episode is full of information that will help us become the best of the best. Note: This episode is sponsored by the PIA's iLearning Center, where members and non-members can find courses for improving sales skills through selling to vertical markets and selling digital/inkjet printing.

Joe Marin is the VP of Education and Training for the Printing Industries of America and an expert on helping sales reps grow through his iLearning Center. In this Short Attention Span Sales episode, Joe talks about the skills and characteristics of the best in the business and how they got that way. Then, he'll talk about new learning options and why they work.You'll learn:What new reps need to do in order to succeed.Once you've started, what it takes to get to the next level.What veteran reps need to do in order to stay relevant.

Classroom 2.0 LIVE webinar, "Capturing Creativity with Canva" presented by Lisa Johnson, @TechChef4U, June 6, 2015. We are so excited to have Lisa Johnson (@TechChef4U) with us to share her expertise and experiences with Canva for visual literacy in this webinar. Canva (https://www.canva.com/ ) is a website that allows you to create and design your own graphics and images for free, and has a library of free images to use (as well as some stock imagery available at a $1 per image should you wish to use them). If you need to make beautiful posters, invitations, cards, website graphics, or even multiple-page presentations, Canva is a design service you're going to want to use. Vicki Davis has said of Canva’s education initiatives, “Graphics are an essential part of today’s communication and influence. It isn’t just about making it look pretty. Effective graphics help us better articulate ideas and inspire action.” Canva reinforces its commitment to the education space by providing a tool that enables teachers and students to innovate, collaborate, and communicate through visual design. Canva’s new education center is aimed at providing learning resources for teachers looking for dynamic and engaging ways to integrate visual project-based learning into their core curriculum. About Lisa Johnson: TechChef4u is a family-owned business led by CEO and founder Lisa Johnson. The mission of TechChef4u is to provide technology integration resources and support to all… with a splash of personality and a heaping helping of creativity. Lisa has 12 years of educational experience ranging from teaching HS English & MS Math to international curriculum development, creating and presenting workshops, and even running technology integration camps across the state of Texas. Currently, Lisa serves Eanes ISD which proudly supports an 1:1 iPad initiative from K-12. Additionally, she has been recognized and selected as an Apple Distinguished Educator. Her love for “cooking up” technology integrated lessons and the need for a creative & productive outlet led her to create the TechChef4u blog in early May of 2011. In early 2012 TechChef4u was officially launched as an educational entity supporting and promoting purposeful and engaging integration of mobile devices at home and in the iClassroom. Lisa continues to share her app-thusiasm for iLearning at multiple conferences worldwide including Mobile 2012, TCEA, ISTE, FETC, iPadpalooza, Tech Forum, iPad Summit, and Australia’s Slide2Learn.
