Not everything we do needs to evoke a deep sense of meaning. That would be exhausting! Multipotentialites are usually involved in a number of different projects. Some of these are naturally more meaningful than others (just as some are more profitable than others).

“The majority people of this world get fooled by the so called "good looking" people. Taking conventional standards of the world, these so called "good looking" individuals are often the most boring people. They fool most people into liking them because of their looks. They lack depth in most things. They lack passion. They lack empathy. They lack emotional quotient. They don't go deep into most subjects. They present a facade of knowledge. They have what the world calls a "swag." They get away in most situations by projecting an exterior based on only their good looks. They don't have creativity. They don't read books. They don't know about art. They cannot talk about philosophy. They don't understand psychology. They are not deep into economics and the topics of most sciences.”
