It’s not very long that I was watching Emile’s ted talk, and I related myself directly with her experience. Then I re-confirmed my multipotentialite personality with several other texts available online and read about experiences which other multipotentialites have shared on blog posts.
Let me tell you how I am feeling after I accepted by multipotentialite personality:
- Goodbye to Insecurity: Since I have accepted the fact that I am not wired to work as a ‘Specialist’ and I am at my best when I work at intersections of several fields, I do not feel insecure anymore. I feel more confident to team up with individuals coming from different domains, and explore and present solutions which are out of the box and save a lot of resources. This way, I feel much more appreciated at my work place. I also feel my life is now more aligned to my values than before.
- I’m not alone: Ever since I have realized that, multipotentialites are all over the world, hence I feel I am not alone and feel the need to connect with people who are like me. It gives me a feeling that I am too an important part of this society, it’s just that instead of multipotentialites who have adjusted themselves in the Specialist world, it’s the society which needs to change its mindset. I have found several online communities and I have met some wonderful people with similar personalities who are multipotentialites and are staying happily and some of them are even more successful than their specialist pals.
- Destiny is always right: My open question to all Multipotentialites: Have you ever thought something was wrong with them as a result a feeling of guilt has cornered in your mind? If this is the case, I assure you that there is nothing wrong with your personality rather I tell you that life will be much better when you embrace your multipotentialite personality without thinking what others think of you, no matter if it’s your close relations or a distant friend. You are blessed with a unique talent which others have no idea how you can be leveraged to shape the world.
- More opportunities come your way: Ever since I have accepted this personality, I have felt a lot more aligned to my soul and hence what I think or desire would manifest very quickly. My mind has opened up to several new ideas and has become more intuitive in order to quickly reach at the right solution. In other words, I don’t restrict myself to one field anymore yet I play around with new ideas and put the knowledge of the various subjects to use. I definitely feel much more energized by all the activities related to learning and exploring, rather than feeling that I am wasting my time.
- More Freedom: Last but not the least, freedom of expression is everything. God has never created his beings to stay in restrictions and then die. I see myself a person who loves himself for what I have become because my mind is free from all the restrictions and does not need to think in any one direction. I switch projects when I feel like, I have stopped associating myself with societal labels. Whenever I am satisfied with current project in hand, I jump to the next thing on my list. It’s awesome when you are mentally free and people understand you because now you understand yourself in a better way.
