I was listening to a podcast once where Elizabeth Gilbert’s idea of a hummingbird and jackhammer were shared. The basic idea was that there are 2 types of people: jackhammers and hummingbirds. Jackhammer type people focus on one passion and make great impacts in one area. Hummingbird type people fly “from flower to flower, from field to field, trying this, trying that.” I’ve always had many different interests and have never had just that one thing that I’m passionate about. I always hoped I’d discover that one thing, but have now realized that having many interests, hobbies, passions, and dreams is equally fulfilling. Gilbert said,”if you’re willing to just humbly and faithfully continue to follow the trail of the hummingbird path one of these days you just might look up and realize, ‘oh, my word, I’m exactly where I’m meant to be.’” I’ve always wanted to have an Etsy shop but never have because I was too busy stressing over picking just one interest :)
