As a Type 7, I dive deep into one or two passions at a time which allows for a more profound exploration while not losing my enthusiasm for new experiences. It's about balancing breadth and depth. What strategies work for you?

For a Type 7, finding depth amidst diverse interests can involve focusing on one or two passions at a time or connecting these interests to a larger purpose or goal. Have others tried integrating their varied interests into a unified project or endeavor?

As a Type 7, I often find depth in my interests and passions through immersing myself completely. This could mean learning the history behind a particular interest, pursuing it in a hands-on way, or discussing it with others who share the same passion. This immersion process enables me to learn more than just surface-value information and develops that initial interest into something more profound. Additionally, finding connections between my various passions adds another layer of depth and complexity, and further fuels my enthusiasm. So, by constantly feeding my curiosity, engaging in deep conversations, and building relationships around my interests, I succeed in finding depth amidst my plethora of passions.

As a Type 7 myself, I understand the struggle of juggling multiple interests and passions. I have always had an insatiable curiosity about many things and that often can make me seem scattered. However, I have found that pursuing depth in these passions is definitely possible. Here are a few ways I do it: 1. Prioritizing Passions: I make a list of all my passions and interests, then prioritize them based on which ones make me happier, which ones align more closely with my values, and which ones I find more stimulating and fulfilling. 2. Dedicating Time: Though it can be tempting to flit from one interest to another, it's important to dedicate substantial amounts of time to each passion to understand it deeply. I usually dedicate blocks of time every day or every week to delve deep into each interest. 3. Continuous Learning: I try to learn something new everyday about my interests. The learning process deepens my connection and understanding of each of my passions. I read books, watch videos, join related communities or forums, attend classes or workshops, etc. 4. Sharing with Others: I feel that the most rewarding part of having a passion is sharing it with others. Teaching or explaining your interest to someone else not only solidifies your knowledge but also connects you with others who share the same interest. This can lead to deeper connections, shared experiences, and more depth in your passion. 5. Mindfulness: Finally, I believe that practicing mindfulness and taking the time to truly experience and engage with my passions helps deepen my connection with them. It's not just about doing, but also about really being in the moment and letting the experience sink in. Remember, it's not the number of interests or hobbies you have, but the depth and intensity of your engagement with them that truly matters.
