Hyperactive Dreamers
The purpose of the name "Hyperactive Dreamers" is not to label another difference seen in human behavior but to bring many other "mistakenly placed" labels off.
Hyperactive dreamers are often seen as incapable, slow and lost, but also as exceptionally competent and bright individuals.
The personality of hyperactive dreamers is highly influenced by their emotional condition the emotional zeal.
It enables them to experience something related to their interests strongly, which takes them to the state of deep
concentration or hyperfocus. That quality gives them an artistic trait because when they do something, they do it
passionately and fully focused. On the other side, once they get involved with something considered monotonous
and boring to them, it might make them lose interest so they become lost or even shallow.
That is exactly what makes their mind operate in a different way. It disappoints them in the very simplest activities, but also enables them to present their view of something in a completely new and unique way.
As they are, it's not surprising that they can leave an incomplete and wrong image to other people, which is why most of them encounter difficulties or are diagnosed with the ADHD syndrome.
And that is what this significant number of people needs - a common name that will unify the strengths of these people and under which they could be recognized.
If we train a bird to run, will it be as qualified and fast as a cat? It won't, because birds and cats are different. No matter how much time we spent training the bird, it will never run with as much speed and precision as a cat. The reason is neither deficit nor disorder, but the difference. Giving the bird its needful freedom, adapting to it we could witness its beautiful, mighty wings. Then I'll notice that the deficit was not in a bird, but in my observation of a bird. Deficit was in me. Then, and only then, will the bird become a bird!
