Hello all you amazingly awesome people and welcome to Iceberg! We are a community that is based of the idea and philosophy of Polymath. What is a Polymath you might ask? A polymath is a person who has wide array of skillset and knowledge across diverse fields. Traditionally we were taught that you need focus and can only focus in mastering and working in one profession throughout our adult lives. If you're a doctor, you're just a doctor. If you're an engineer, you are an engineer. That's all you are. That's all you can only be. But think back during the Rennaisance era, great people like Leonardo Da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin, Ibnu Sina(Avicenna) and many more people like them, whereby they dabbed their hands in multiple disciplines and fields.
Even when i was younger(before i knew of the word Polymath) i realized that i've got a wide array of skillset across different fields. I'm a nerd who is fascinated with science, but i also love art. I like music, i like to dance, i like to sing, i've been in a choir group, i even want to try painting.
At the same time, i'm a pretty good writer. You can see it by just how i write this post. And even in writing my skillset span out as well. I can write stories, i can write poems, i can write song lyrics, i can write scripts for plays. I can also write for marketing purposes(copywriting).
Oh and at the same time, i'm also pretty good in Marketing and Sales. I managed to sell 200 pieces of ice cream for my class project within less than 2 hours...sold out! It even surprised me at the time. I'm pretty good at analyzing business.
So you see, these things were in my head when i was studying. And back then i was still stuck with the traditional mentality. But i knew i didn't want that...i didn't want to graduate and just work in IT...yeah it's a needed industry and has high pays..but i knew i wouldn't be happy..knowing that i have all of these skillset on my plate...but i can only use 1...it felt devastated for me...
Skip forward a few years later...i stumbled upon a word-Polymath...and that changed my view drastically...and thought..."yeah that's right...i don't have to follow the traditional route...i can just make my own routes...i can make my own career that i would truly enjoy doing..." which led me to build this company..Iceberg!
Iceberg! is a company/community that celebrates the idea and philosophies of Polymath. Where we can share our skillsets together for our projects. Just imagine what we can accomplish together. Just imagine what we can achieve together. Just imagine the kinds of innovations we can do together. Well...imagine that! We can truly live life to the fullest.
Cuz for me, i don't see success in terms of money like most people. Money is just a tool. And until you realize that money is just a tool, you'll be a slave to it, just like the rest of the people. For me, success is fullfilment, happiness, joy, being mentally sound, waking up everyday, excited to take on the world.
We only have limited time here. Our lives are short and fleeting each second. So why not make the most of it? Think about do you really want to spend the rest of your lives in resentment?do you want to spend the rest of your lives feeling like you're trapped in the rat-race, dog-eat-dog culture? For me, it's better to collaborate rather than compete.
But i guess i'll leave it all to you.
But if you want to join me, just hook me up, down in the comments, DMs, follow my channel and let's embark on this amazing journey...
Together!
Thank you
