I like to see myself (and others like me) as a special breed. And really, the truth is, I really am special.
You too are.
Sometime ago, I picked up a very "interesting" book to read. After an engaging 24 page, I got bored,dumped the book, moved on to another. Yes, you're right, I dumped that one too. I began to feel something is wrong with me. Why couldn't I read like every other person? At some point, I'd accepted I have a reading problem.
Later on, I found it's the way my mind works. I had to multitask to get things done. Being an advocate for 'singularity of purpose', I found it a bit difficult adapting to this way of doing things. So, instead of reading one book per time, I'd read like three, making out specific time for each of them.
Now, the genius here is being able to channel all the energy into individual task as a singular purpose, and yet, performing other tasks simultaneously and with the same energy.
This is what works for. Now tell me, what works for you?
Apart from being a photographer, I'm also the pianist at my church and I'm also studying to become a Petroleum Engineer. There's a lot more, where this comes from. And, with time, I'd let y'all know the many shades of me.
