It highlights three methods for changing whether a field is mandatory or not.
The first method, making a field universally required states: "To make a custom field universally required, select the Required checkbox when defining the custom field."
This would imply that to make it non-essentially required you could recreate the field and delete the old one. However, there should be a general info section in the custom object detail that indicates whether the field is "required" or not, please edit your custom field and untick this box and then check your page layouts don't have it set as required also. Please look at creating a validation rule or creating a new customised page layout also if these solutions also solve your problem.
