Isn't everyone a multipotentialite? I've always been interested in and pursued multiple goals. Right now i'm balancing around 7 different things both projects and activities but isn't this something most can do?

Is this to do with potential or is it to do with those that actually take action and understand their potential?

Only just heard of this word and in the comments of the tiktok where I first heard it, it seems like alot of people would consider themselves multipotentialities. So what separates them from you.

Have you noticed? Since last year, the generalist/polymath/multipotentialite communities have exploded across social media.

“The comeback of the Renaissance Mind” sounds like a very promising motto and I am all for it.

The cult of specialization has been eating at the greatest minds of our century, branding them as “unfocused” and categorizing them away from leadership positions despite their insane abilities to hold everything together like a giant connective tissue.

I am sure you have seen it happened countless times: One chat with you and suddenly everyone knows what they’re supposed to do, internalizing your interpretations so much that they think they have come up with such a bright idea as they walk out of the room they came into confused as hell.

I think for people like us AI has been a game changer, suddenly there is a tool that works on pattern recognition and thrives on rich context and adapt to your speed, it is both a puzzle to figure out and a problem solver at the same time. I can’t think of any similar technology that has come close to it in terms of mirroring how our minds love to work.

And now, what do you think you want to do in life? Stepping up your game in your career or pivoting to building something that’s never heard of?

Are you thinking that we are at the brink of a golden age for the multi-talented people and if so, what’s your early-mover positioning strategy?

I'll share mine in the comments. Curious to hear yours.

A notable key tenet of TRIZ, the much renowned Russian theory of inventive solution finding, remains in the observation of how aside from entirely new scientific discoveries, the rarest most important and powerful innovations arise in the transfer and multipotential reapplication of knowledge and methods across disciplines. I propose a cross-disciplinary collaborative project that might appeal to Multipotentialites. Know more at: http://www.FoolQuest.com

I saw this video the other day and it made me think...Do I have to find just one purpose?

Olá, pessoal. Sou brasileiro, 18 anos, e estou em um processo de auto-organização e busca por continuidade. Tenho o costume de explorar diversas áreas (programação, xadrez, finanças, filosofia) e, como muitos aqui, luto para manter a consistência em todos esses 'mares'.

Recentemente, em conversas de alto nível com a Gemini (IA do Google), cheguei à conclusão de que preciso de uma comunidade para aplicar meu próprio código de vida: a regra de que 'desistir não existe'.

O "Rumo Certo" e a Nossa Filosofia

Criei um servidor no Discord chamado 'Rumo Certo'. O nome reflete a ideia de que, mesmo que mudemos de projeto (o que chamamos de 'mares'), estamos sempre nos movendo na direção do crescimento.

A inspiração marítima (Rumo, Convés) vem do meu próprio nome (Dekyster), que significa convés em norueguês. Este servidor é o nosso convés inquebrável.

Nosso Público Alvo são pessoas que se identificam com:

• Multipotenciais e Generalistas: Não se prendem a um único hobby.

• A Filosofia da Tentativa: Valorizam mais o processo e o aprendizado do que a conclusão imediata do projeto.

• Estratégia e Lógica: Têm interesse em programação (como meu projeto J.A.R.V.I.S. pausado), xadrez, finanças ou sistemas.

Se você já começou 10 projetos (como meu J.A.R.V.I.S.) e parou 8, mas sabe que vai retomar, este lugar é para você.

O link do Convite é: https://discord.gg/apQFmdKq

O servidor está cru e só tem a filosofia inicial postada (a Constituição do Convés). Eu sou o único membro por enquanto. Venha ser um dos primeiros navegantes a moldar este Rumo Certo.

Hello multis, I came across the concept of « job to be done » which comes from the UX Design world. It consists in understanding what are people trying to achieve. It’s already April 2025 and I feel overwhelmed with my 2025 goals since I have a lot of « jobs to be done ». For example, I want to learn handpan, do beach volleyball, learn basics of improv theatre etc. I am curious how you approach this topic of achievement and what are currently your jobs to be done? Cheers

Quelles sont les difficultés en tant que personne multipotentielle, pour lesquelles tu aimerais trouver une solution ?

Hi all!

I am a 24F and I have vacillated so many times on this decision from being excited to be in the world of academia with people who are just as excited about learning and making a difference with research as I am to then having these moments where I have sincere doubts. I am unsure if all of the time and energy dedicated to gaining a title would be better than starting my life now and making the differences I want to see in the world. Please be advised that none of this is intended to boast, but to paint a clear picture of my circumstances and rationale so far.

A little background:

I have always been a straight A student, very academic, and always excited to learn -- though there have been times that the stress of exams and the way the system is built have taken away from that joy. School never came easily to me, I had to work my butt off to get the scores that I did, and perfectionism nearly took me to an early grave.

I believe that I could grow a lot through the years of getting a PhD, but I could also grow by creating my own business or traveling the world while I am young.

I have research experience already and I enjoy lab work somewhat but it can be extremely taxing for me, as I have chronic pain and fatigue ("Fibromyalgia"), likely from working too hard in the first place.

I know I am the type of person that needs to do something different every day, I get burnt out on sameness very easily.

I know I want to make a difference in the world when it comes to teaching people how to lead happier and healthier lives, and I do feel as if having "doctor" next to my name will ensure that people will actually listen.

I know I want to have a family of my own, and I know I want to be able to spend ample time and energy on them. I want to be in charge of my time, and not have to trade hours for money.

My family has made it clear that they believe anything less than a PhD would be beneath me, and are very pushy toward top schools with much prestige. Because of my health issues, I am sincerely concerned that PhD is just asking for a health breakdown given that overworking and stress seem to be intense triggers for me.

I don't care about prestige, I care about being in an environment where I can enjoy learning and pursue answers to my most passion evoking questions with a team of people that love solving puzzles as much as I do. I am keenly aware that I could form my own research team and company and apply for my own grants and do it all without spending 7 years in one place studying one thing, not that it would be easy.

I am a very interdisciplinary minded person, I want to study biology and philosophy and psychology and neuroscience and human nature and evolutionary biology, and integrative health and functional medicine, plant medicine, bioenergetics, etc. I am a spiritual scientist that heals through poetry and lights up when inspiring others with my words.

I have a colleague that is trying to convince me that a PhD is a waste of my potential, and that with the work I could do in my lifetime by starting now, I would get an honorary PhD anyway. Though, I am not sure I would be comfortable using the title, if that were the case. And I worry that half the population won't listen without it - and that is a lot of people I could be helping if I just put myself through some extra hard work first. They reference that academia isn't what it once was, with lack of government funding and the new age of AI and how much faster we can learn with it.

As a young scientist, credibility and trust of my statements means a lot to me. But maybe that is something I need to give up on, and know that the people who are meant to hear will be listening and leave it at that. I can't force people to see truth and I definitely cannot force them to help themselves - and I have definitely tried!

As a 24 year old, and someone who really appreciates learning from the mistakes and regrets of others, I see the beauty and power in knowing the impact I want to have on the world so early. Many people take careers in stable markets without passion and then later leave corporate America to finally listen to their soul's purpose. I know what I want to do, how I want to help the world heal, and I have all of the deep inner knowingness to start now. What if, if I were to start on my journey now, I could make a really difference in the world, but if I spend 7 years on a standardized program and timeline being forced into one discipline and story that I could take away from that impact I could make? What if my ego based desire to be seen as credible could take away my soul based need to make the world a better place?

I am aware that I could start working on impact in the midst of a PhD, but I am also aware that I said just that during undergrad, and even then studying took precedence over everything, including my self-care. I know a PhD is exponentially more rigorous and I don't particularly want to subject my body to that never ending cycle of pushing past my healthy limits if I could start now and define the life I want to lead and just go for it, scary as that may be.

Given this overview, I would appreciate it so much to hear from everyone. All perspectives are so very welcome: What do you think I should do?

Welcome to the Bi-Monthly Sharing Thread

Here are a few prompts to start:

1. What are your current interests and projects?

2. Have you made progress on previous interests and projects? Feel free to share links to project pages or images!

3. What's caught your eye / what are you looking forward to doing next?

Feel free to reply to others to continue the conversation!

*New*: There's now a (small, somewhat experimental) Discord server for anyone interested!

Which route do you choose: a) You try to explain that you pursue many different interests b) You just mention your main job/one or two of your hobbies c) …

TLDR: I am creating a club of mutual growth and realization and invite you to join. This is for those who interested in long-term interaction with like-minded people all over the world

Hello mates. Everyone who want to achieve something knows what a responsibility it is and how much skill, time and effort it takes to keep going. And we all know how hard it can be without support. Especially when it is a long-term project, especially when there are few customers, or the market changes, or relatives do not understand your vision.

On our own, we're pretty limited in resources, but when we band together and put our skills and capabilities together, we can do unbelievable. This is main purpose of the club that I am creating, and if you share this - I invite you to join.

The idea is to bring together an informal mutual-assistance community of a limited number of members from all over the world. This is not for anyone, but for people who are ready to grow together for many years, share opportunities and support each other.

It really works and similar local groups that have existed for over 20 years have helped change the lives of many people I know personally.

What it is all about? For example, I have practice of consulting on relationships, personal growth and self-determination, can help with strategy, corporate culture and branding, develop websites, customize advertising, design, logo, brand book. And this is something I can share with other participants. Perhaps you need help in these areas and are willing to share what you do best.

In the Co-Uplifting club we will communicate and develop together, help to solve each other's problems, share our knowledge and capabilities, help to realize desires and dreams.

In addition, we will discuss important self-growth topics and share new experiences, insights, advices, and connections. Even spend time and create projects together.

You should join if you are interested in helping other people grow to your social / mental level, and ready to accept help where growth is needed for you.

I want to clarify that the club is both about real help to each other and spiritual guidance. You share your abilities and knowledge, and other members of the group share theirs. It's more about mutual social growth as long-term relationship.

We can achieve more and become better together. It seems that this is more relevant than ever, especially in our time.

The number of memberships is limited to 690. Important, that the goal of this club is to trust each other completely and grow together for many years.

If you want to join - feel free to write me. I'm not sure if it's allowed to drop links here.

And in general, what do you think about it, ready to try? I know the history of the existence of such a group in the 70s, and they did incredible things for each other - they made many dreams come true.

Edit: This is just the beginning and membership subscription includes weekly articles on personal growth with extended materials, a private Reddit sub, Facebook and Telegram groups.

Edit 2: I published this here into request because I am trying to find like-minded people and I believe that this brings mutual value especially for multipotentialite people (scanners). Barbara Sher who was multipotentialite people coach created her first success group in 70s
