Believing I am supposed to have one true passion and calling always made me think there was something wrong with me. Especially when people told me I can't do more than one thing and have to choose. I'm working towards becoming an engineer as a job, but I also love writing fantasy stories and I am obsessed with anatomy just for the sake of knowing. Being a polymath is confusing when you're young but it's great later.

Da Vinci was an extroverted intuitive. That means that he interacted with the world in chaotic bursts of energy on whatever he was interested in. He was being himself, he was literally born wired like this. Now ask yourself, am I a Renaissance man - or just imitating one?

Thank you for introducing that ted talk to us. I really appreciate it! It's also thanks to KZfaq's recommendations that I managed to find your channel and this video. I was just thinking about the thing about being "multipotentialite" earlier this morning. And to be honest, I didn't know that there was such a term not until I listened to the talk-just wow-language in general never fails to amaze me.

I am just now realizing thatthe fetishization of “specialists” is constructed to serve capitalism-masters of a craft, in retrospect, always had mutiple passionsand were interdiciplinary. Demonstrated in Robert Greene’s Mastery.

I think both specialists and multipotentialites are at least to some extent responses of market demand. Perhaps at one point in time the market demanded individuals with more specialized skill sets, but as market interests expanded so to did the demand for individuals with more diverse skill sets. But I don't think specialists are fetishized, I think the market changed so quickly and in such a short time that the generation that preceded this change failed to recognize that market demands had indeed changed, and that therefore they needed to equip the next generation with tools more suitable for the new market environment.

...I came across your channel this afternoon (with your 'Fluent in French' video) and I saw that I was already subscribed, with the bell turned on. ...I spent quite sometimes trying to figure out what exactly made me subscribe to your channel in the first place. Now I know. It was because of this very video which I remember I found about eight months ago, when I was doing some researches about 'Polymathy', thinking that I was... kind of... broken.

Hey Robin, Great video as always! I think Da Vinci is such an inspiration. I have research deeper into who he was and what he did to find out that there is so much more about him than meets the eye, from what I have researched he was a master of consciousness. I accidentally removed your comment from my video and found no way to restore it ^^. Anyway thanks for the love
@RCWaldun6 жыл бұрын
Haha thanks Julien. Pushing myself to become better everyday! However, I think I'm currently in the phase of spiritual purification, since a lot of my old habits are dragging me back. I've been doing consciousness work for about 2 years, and this might just be my biggest leap in growth. I'd work through it and I'd be back to the healthy self in no time! We should do a skype podcast some time!

Is this why I am interested in everything? I have already practiced 10 skills and it seems like more and more keeps coming... is it alright to feel hunger in this endless calling? Plus will this affect my other skill mastery, if I don’t focus on one thing? And no matter what even when I feel discourage, I still kept on trying to progress despite the adversities. And it’s no wonder that the more I keep exploring the more I kept learning about myself. So I don’t think Leonardo Da Vinci’s quote was wrong about it finding true knowledge.
@RCWaldun4 жыл бұрын
I think being a polymath doesn't clash with mastery. Mastering one skill serves as the anchor point for you to rest the rest of your discoveries on.

Its not a problem at all, those few bad apples who criticize people for being so diplomatic and multi-talented, and upbraid you for not having a speciality are just a bunch of losers and this shows their narrow view of the world and human nature. Their view of the world is limited. So screw them, you know. Not everybody is the same.
