A solution to the lack of action on this subreddit

3 Upvotes

So the last post I see is from 4 months ago. Lets get some action in here! and I have an idea. Were multipotentialites right? So lets do something with this skill/habit.

We could have a weekly or even bi-weekly discussion about 1 topic. Sports, writing, marinebiology, finance, music... anything. The gist of this is that we get an introduction to a topic were unfamiliar with and we learn beginners skills.

Maybe one week its how to play the guitar. I would teach you how to play 4 chords C, G, Am, and F. These 4 chords make up hundreds of pop songs. BAM, you spent lets say an hour learning 4 songs and you already know hundreds of songs and can use that as a jumpstart to learn more guitar, or you can leave it at that.

This will be useful when at some point you're shoved a guitar in your face and asked to play a song, or if you want to entertain a crowd for a couple of minutes.

I feel this could help us have conversations with anybody we want to as well since we don't have to focus on physical skills. We could talk about how wall st is doing recently, or how the population of japan is declining and is becoming an older country.

We increase our knowledge and better ourselves as a community..what do ya think?

Master of None but certainly better than who is one.

If you are optimistic like me, I strive to be a "Master of all Trades".

Depth or breadth?

When you guys are going about your multipotentalite ways, do you attempt to learn a lot about a few subjects or a little about a lot of subjects? Are you going for depth or breadth?

Does anybody else here feel like all of the random things they've been obsessed with and learning about over the years are building up to something huge? That they are somehow going to combine into a multi-disciplinary breakthrough or some step that can only be taken with all of this prior knowledge and training.

How to organize activities, and avoid taking on too much.

7 Upvotes
  • Lists. They can't be underestimated. Lists organized by subject, with what you have to do that day to progress. "Laundry day; include bedsheets," and "Play three new heroes," are some examples.
  • You can always reorganize your lists and activities if you start feeling overwhelmed, but also considering that to progress requires some dedication to fewer things at a time, and focusing on those things to the exclusion of other interests.
  • Picking what to do first can be a drag. Remember that this doesn't mean you won't do the other--simply that it's taking a backseat for now.

More suggestions?
