Social norms dictate that we determine one interest in life
and focus on it to the detriment of everything else. People need to find their vocation and pursue a career path. What if certain individuals are not wired
that way? Do your research and find out who they are and the advantages of
being the way they are. Then write about them.
Note to the student: this essay task is not your run of the
mill advantages and disadvantages essay; in keeping with the title, it is a
combination of more than one task. Your essay should clarify what kind of
person a multipotentialite is and the advantages of being so.
Thanks are due to another
multipotentialite, Essie (http://essiespeaks.blogspot.com), for this interesting
