So you’ve run across the term, Multipassionate individual. This sounds like you! You are always hopping from thing to thing and now you know why. Now that you know, what do you do with it?
Here are some things I’ve done as a Multipassionate individual:
- UX Design & Research (I have met SO many interesting people from varied backgrounds in this field.)
- This blog
- TikTok
- Teaching yoga
- Selling my art online
- Various other side-hustles
Does being Multipassionate just mean you procrastinate?
I have read that being Multipassionate just means you can’t decide and are procrastinating. Nothing could be further from the truth! You are allowing yourself to be in a discovery phase. You are finding your zone, your channel. Your brain is a beautiful thing that works on many levels all at once. Most people, simply can’t do that. Don’t squish that.
Ok, so now what do I do?
The trap we often find ourselves in as Multipassionate folks is, “how do I make myself fit in?”. You don’t! The key is to find the next step, through decisive action, that feels in line with your heart. If you can pay the bills with that next step, awesome, but not necessary.
If you are an executive assistant and you’re bored, use those skills to work for someone who’s more interesting. Maybe a real estate firm, watch how those people operate. Maybe it’s an interior design firm. Maybe you contract. Use what you have to get more skills and keep moving, keep growing through action. Get really good at whatever it is and hop to the next thing that is interesting to you. Make connections with cool people along the way. The people that are doing cool things will show you a new way to live as your cool, interesting, curious self.
So what is your next step?
