Are you really MULTI-TALENTED or???

What does it really means to be Multi-talented?

The ability to be good at many things at a time. Its a rare gift but its awesome to have. To be able to be an artist, a writer, a footballer, a comedian, a pornstar, bla bla bla at the same time.

Also known as the ability to to mentally UNFOCUSED. Yes, you read it right...

You can be anything but you can't be everything.

That quote remains one of my best, you just can't be everything so focus on one very thing that you love doing and make a life out of it.
Its okay to know many things at a time but you mustn't deeply know everything. If you try to know them all, at once... You will end up knowing nothing.

A learned man is somebody who knows a little about almost everything. Not a man who is a professional in all aspect of life.

If you really want to learn many thing and be about 75% good at each of them. Maybe Leonardo da vinci is your role model and you want to be like him. Its still possible.

Its really good to know a lot of thing, you dont know the one that will help you tomorrow. Its cool to be jack of all trade and master of none but sometimes better than master of one.
You pay people to do what you are ignorant of, you can never pay somebody to do what you can do... Unless you are lazy.

So how do you learn many things and know them all without losing focus and ending up not knowing any.
Firstly, Draft a table of things you would love to learn and take them one after the other.

Pick out one and ignore others until you gain an average knowledge of it before switching to another. Along the line, you will find one to be very interesting, focus on it and go deeper in it... There lies your calling and true potentials.

I am currently doing it, so far so good i have learnt how to draw, how to write comedy and fictions, currently learning cryptocurrency, maybe i will learn programming next...

Although i love crypto more and i may stop there then dig deeper to explore every aspect of it...

Conclusion, You can be multi-talented and you can be a lot of things in life but you just can't be it at once... Its one step at a time... Focus and get a job done before going to another

As they all say "Jack of all trades but a master of none!"

I'm also the type who wants to know everything. However, I know if I force it, i wouldn't be fun any longer. ^^ At times, you just focus on your strengths and maybe do the others later. :)

This is something I often caution people about too. People try to take on too much at once. They look at multifaceted successful people and don’t realize how that was built up in segments, not all at once. Great post.

Sorry for the late reply, At the time i saw your comment, i was really busy and i promised myself to calm down and reply later. Instead of replying you something like "Thanks for commenting" at that moment...
Well right now, i am still speechless and dont know what to reply. In summary, i am really happy that you found my post to be interesting...
