Now I have been working with Polish for a week. But... I have been looking at my blog, and finding things, and one thing leads to another, and I am losing focus... I'm going to fail. Again. I will not learn Polish. :-(
So... how will I limit myself and keep focus and keep working on Polish?
I went to look for some help, suggestions, tips, advice, anything, and found "multipotentialites"...
I didn't know this is "a thing" before today...
Of course I have heard about multitalented people, polymaths, renaissance people - and I know I am one - but I didn't know about "multipotentialites".
"I was reminded of the fact that talent, intelligence, aptitude, even love of languages mean absolutely nothing when it comes to learning languages."
And the thing is, THAT WAS NEVER A FACT!
I am not into this to become a polyglot! I am not into this to learn all these languages I want to learn, there is no end goal. This is a never-ending journey, just enjoying the beauty of the languages and human mind, thinking... I mean... I NAMED THIS BLOG LANGUAGE MUSE!
This is supposed to be a source of INSPIRATION. I am here to INSPIRE people. Not to teach anyone, not even me, anything.
I feel so... cheated.
And so... happy, liberated, vindicated even.

I'll tell you what I learned about Polish tomorrow :-D
Today I'll just enjoy the ride :-)

I still have no idea what I want to be when I grow up…
I can’t seem to stick with anything for the long haul…
I’m a Jack of all Trades, master of none…
I often don’t finish the things I start…
I lose interest in things I thought I would be passionate about forever…
People say I have Shiny Object Syndrome, always chasing the next sparkly thing…
I’m worried I’ll be on entry level wages my whole life because I change jobs and careers so often…
The Magic of Everything - Are You a Multipotentialite?
"Both Sher and Wapnick explain that it looks like multipotentialites don’t finish what they start but the truth is, our finishing point is just not the same as other people’s. We feel called to stop doing something once we got what we came for, when we’ve learnt everything we feel we need to know. We rarely quit because something is too hard. We “quit” because our intellectual curiosity is satisfied and we’re drawn to move onto exploring our next challenge.Just a week ago I was crying about this:
Because that’s what we do best."
