Refusal to ‘grow up’ and embracing your inner potential

There are some people who will never choose just one career. Nuala Woulfe reports on those who embrace their inner passions and potential

Find your dream job, follow your one true calling, new year, new career — they’re all mantras many of us repeat once Christmas festivities are a memory and the daily grind comes round again. However there’s one group of people for whom one career will never satisfy; they’re Scanners (people who tune into many life frequencies) Renaissance people, Generalists or Multipotentialites.

These are ‘Jack of all Trades’ who refuse to choose one career because choosing goes against their internal wiring. Unfortunately, they’re often blighted by guilt or paralysis because they don’t know ‘what they want to be when they grow up’ even though they’re well into adulthood. Society often misunderstands them; sometimes labelling them childish, irresponsible, job hoppers or flaky.
