if you have too many interests and lack one true calling, start here

Ohh I was so happy when you mentioned video game development. I am a game developer myself and as soon started talking about the definition of multipotentialites I immediately thought - oh this sounds like people who would be ideal for working in indie game development, hehe :D Because there are so many different things you can do, designing, art, programming, music, marketing, writing... So I guess I learned a new word to describe myself.

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Nice! I was gonna ask you to elaborate more and then saw you channel is all about it :) Definitely subscribed! You should keep making videos!! We need more channels about multipassionate people!

In college, I struggled with vastly different career ideas so much (concert promotion, volcanology, art director...). I ended up choosing to be an elementary school teachers which has been pretty fulfilling. It became more fulfilling as a GT Specialist. It lets me tickle my many interests at work and provides challenge. I do get tired, but I have gotten pretty good at sneaking in habits to help balance my interests.

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Yeah that was my big problem as a young adult, I had so many different ideas of what I wanted to do it seemed like a curse to have to pick just one :( (volcanology sounds super cool though!) I chose to go into education at some point, too! I think the job itself has a lot of variety. I hope it's not too exhausting for you :) I'd love ot know some of your habits you've snuck in!

[@DaniFoxx]

This is a very well done and thoughtful video. Thanks for posting. You have exposed me to a new way of thinking about things that is very helpful. You've given me a lot to think about. Thanks 💕

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Thank you for watching!

[@geoffreyguist5000]

thanks for sharing about this book and your opinions on it, great information! I both watch and upload a lot of videos related to personal development and book reviews, but have never thought about specialist versus generalist

[@polyglotmona]

Very interesting and easy to follow, thank you 🙏 I always feel I should not do so many different things, but I really get bored when I do less.

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

EXACTLY! Sometimes when I overload myself with things I want to do, I think, man I wish I could just focus on one, but when I actually do it then I'm thinking, man I wish I had more to do, bahaha

[@McofCOD]

4th view. This has always been a challenge in my life, and it's interesting to read about other people with the same problem

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Exactly!! I feel like more people have this kind of personality but not enough people talk about it :(

[@AnewForemost]

Thank you so much! I took several tips to apply. Excellent video, Genie :D. (Besides, apart from the fact that you are inspiring, you seem very friendly and your tone of voice is calm, so the video is super nice/enjoyable/agreeable/lighthearted to watch!). 🙌🏻

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Thank YOU! I hope the tips work for you :) (and thank you! I always feel like my voice is so monotoned, haha, so it's nice to hear that it's calming :D)

[@moonpiryohae]

thankful for this video.

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Thankful that you enjoyed it :)

[@AndreaCherryGarcia]

Thank you so much! You are awesome!

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Thank you for watching! I hope it can help :) And really, it's the author of the book who is awesome, haha, I'm just an avid fan of their work and want to share it :)

[@DavidBadilloMusic]

Music, video game development, software engineering, impostor syndrome, it's like you are talking about me!! 😅😅😅

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

glad to hear you're doing so many great things :) the imposter syndrome gets me, too, hahaha!

[@thatgirldaria]

this is a great video! As someone who has so many interest that sometimes it feels overwhelming, this was very insightful. I wanna read the book now

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

@@thatgirldaria thank you so much!! Please get a copy and check it out it’s really easy to read and so helpful :)

[@katlamb4606]

Uff....just when I needed you!❤❤❤

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Happy to help!

[@knw-seeker6836]

This exactly me never would’ve thought there is a book about it Would be interesting to know if this works also if you have to learn several subjects at school

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Oh for sure! I study multiple subjects just on my own and I use a lot of the advice and productivity methods suggested in the book :D

[@imimran924]

thanks

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

You're welcome!

[@3bks]

the video is very good. but seems that the audio is a little closed

[@lifeinmultiplicity]

Yeah I've had comments like that on previous videos :( I don't know if it's my mic, my editing software, or just my voice :(
