Re:Being average at more than 1 thing is more valuable than ... by Drybones on Tuesday August 14, 2018 @05:21PM (#17762017)
I consider my self to be a person that's good at a lot of things, especially in tech stuff. But Man do I wish I was great at one thing because I am struggling to find a place for myself and getting started in work. No business seems to like that I'm not an absolute expert in what I know or that I don't specialize in X thing.

If I was a superstar in one thing, I feel like I would have succeed already. If being good at a lot of things makes you a great business manager/boss, that's pretty cool. But how will I get to that if no one wants a peon that's not amazing at something that they want?

Obviously this is a generalization, but I have had this problem for several years now. And this could be applied to multiple aspects (Tech, Skillsets, Experiences, Fitness, etc). I don't know, I just feel like I'm the loser in the end while my friends, who only know one thing well, have past me years ago.
