I've been thinking about this for a while. I have a very unique mix of skills and talents - as does everyone else. We're all different if you consider personalities alone, and I think this difference is way more pronounced if you also count skills and talents. In my case, I'm an engineer but I'm also a good writer and speaker, I like acting, if I had a second degree I'd be an economist, I like to cook desserts, I love to travel, I like to learn new languages.
Because of the unique mix of skills everyone has, I guess there must be an activity in which you're the best in the world doing that - some kind of activity or occupation which perfectly matches what you do best. The big question is, how do you find it? Or how do you put yourself in a position where you can leverage all of your skills and not only that, but the insight that comes from looking at something from several points of view at the same time?
For example, I'm good at certain technical things, I'm good at teaching these things, and I also like to write - so I'm in the process of writing a textbook. But that's a trivial example. The question is, how to make the most of your multiclass character?  |
Great topic.
I like it, because it touches me somehow. I was the best graduate at school, smart at everything and I couldn't decide what to do.
But you know, I soon found many things I wasn't good it at all. I found weak points.
I guess you got some, too. Mine were social engineering, self enjoying and females. Oh yeah, and decision making of course
The reasons for feeling lost were not my mulitskills. They were my weak points.
Maybe it's similar with you. Maybe you got things you're hopeless bad in which makes you sad, cause these things are important to you. (Women? Instruments? Sports?) Focus on those weak points and it could bring you joy and clarity.
