Скачать или смотреть Too Many Interests? This Career Fix Changes Everything

If you have too many interests, the world tends to hand you one diagnosis: “You can’t focus.”

And over time, that label can turn curiosity into guilt. You start treating your mind like a problem to fix instead of a capacity to organize. You look at all the things you could learn, build, or become—and instead of choosing, you freeze. Not because you’re lazy, but because the usual career map was built for linear paths.

But what if the map is outdated?

In this video, we challenge the idea that success requires one narrow identity. We explore why modern work increasingly rewards people who can build depth in more than one area—and then connect those areas into real leverage. You’ll learn a simple framework for turning “random” interests into a coherent, valuable career direction without burning out.
