How to Be Everything: A Guide for Those Who (Still) Don't Know What They Want to Be When They Grow UpWhat do you want to be when you grow up? It's a familiar question we're all asked as kids. While seemingly harmless, the question has unintended consequences. It can make you feel like you need to choose one job, one passion, one thing to be about. Guess what? You don't. Having a lot of different interests, projects and curiosities doesn't make you a jack of all trades, master of none. Your endless curiosity doesn't mean you are broken or flaky. What

What do you want to be when you grow up? It's a familiar question we're all asked as kids. While seemingly harmless, the question has unintended consequences. It can make you feel like you need to choose one job, one passion, one thing to be about. Guess what? You don't.

Having a lot of different interests, projects and curiosities doesn't make you a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. Your endless curiosity doesn't mean you are broken or flaky. What you are is a multipotentialite: someone with many interests and creative pursuits. And that is actually your biggest strength.

How to Be Everything helps you channel your diverse passions and skills to work for you. Based on her popular TED talk, Why some of us don't have one true calling, Emilie Wapnick flips the script on conventional career advice. Instead of suggesting that you specialize, choose a niche or accumulate 10,000 hours of practice in a single area, Wapnick provides a practical framework for building a sustainable life around ALL of your passions.
You'll discover:
- Why your multipotentiality is your biggest strength, especially in today's uncertain job market.
- How to make a living and structure your work if you have many skills and interests.
- How to focus on multiple projects and make progress on all of them.
- How to handle common insecurities such as the fear of not being the best, the guilt associated with losing interest in something you used to love and the challenge of explaining what you do to others.

Not fitting neatly into a box can be a beautiful thing. How to Be Everything teaches you how to design a life, at any age and stage of your career, that allows you to be fully you, and find the kind of work you'll love.

Convenience is king (or queen) for a busy person
Style: 600 Count (2 Pack of 300), Size: 300 Count (Pack of 2)
I use these plates a lot. Nice looking, nice weight and finish. Good for a quick bite or reheating something in the microwave. Thick enough and heavy enough not to leak. I use 3 different sizes, price is right

Mini paper plates
Style: 600 Count (2 Pack of 300), Size: 300 Count (Pack of 2)
These smaller paper plates are perfect for a quick lunch when you don't need a big plate but just something quick for a sandwich or a dessert. I love these plates because they are so durable. They're sturdy and the value is amazing. I've checked everywhere on pricing and you can't really beat Amazon's prices for these. Additionally, they always arrive on time and they are always packed well. I've been using these for years. I love them. They make my life much easier. (:

Good plates but someone can't count
Style: 600 Count (2 Pack of 300), Size: 300 Count (Pack of 2)
Good plates, exactly what I needed. Sold as 2 packs of 300 but only 1 pack of 300 arrived. Since this is an Amazon deal, they don't give you a way to talk to a seller, only let you make "suggestions" for the future. Only recourse given at that point to to return for a refund. It would appear sending half the order is a common issue with this particular offer.
