Don't settle for one career path if you have multiple interests
People with numerous interests, which Emily Wapnick refers to as "multipotentialites," can keep work interesting by pursuing different jobs that use their diverse skill set instead of choosing a single career path. Her advice is to pursue hobbies outside of work, have a side gig or project alongside your day job, or look for a different role in your company if you want to use some of your other skills.
