n. someone with many interests and creative pursuits.
One of the values I hold closest is variety.
I thrive when engaging in multiple endeavors at once.
I’m most happy when I have diverse challenges to tackle
and, as it relates to my work, I really do think it gives me my edge.
This is not new either.
Growing up I loved playing multiple roles
(athlete, artist, goof, restaurant employee).
In contrast, I’ve found I’m the least happy
when I put all my focus in one singular direction.
I recently learned of the term, multipotentialite —
finally a word I can use to wrap up the way my brain works best.
