I
hear there was a TED talk recently that involved something called
multipotentialism exhibited by multipotentialities. I had never heard of these terms before.
Can you help me understand this and how it involves the brain—especially one’s
brain bent?
I have
not seen the term multipotentialism in print. I am guessing it might refer to a
theory that some individuals have multiple fields or creative interests in a
lifetime versus those with just “one true calling.” The term multipotenialite is
an educational
and psychological term referring to the ability and preference of an individual
to excel in two or more different fields. A multipotenialite,
therefore, is an individual, particularly one of strong intellectual or
artistic curiosity, who excels in two or more different fields. On
a metaphorical continuum, Specialists would be at one end and Multipotentialites
at the opposite end. Yes, it involves the
brain because everything involves the brain. Everything starts in the brain.
