Ya I think people forget most things in life are a team effort, generalist help bridge the gap between specialist especially with communication and having an idea of what each specialist needs.
The key is not to be a master of all, but to master 1 thing and still be open to what perspective other branches of knowledge can offer, so that in the thing which you try to master, you are able to integrate exceptional and creative approach, making you a standout among the crowd
Exactly. People here in the comments just got an excuse to not master one thing and still be proud. Because mastering anything takes a f lot of hard work and very few do that. They'll learn later. But it'll too late by then.
a jack of all trades can also be a master of all. Perfect example, take leonardo davinci, he was a Painter, sculptor, architect, anatomist, mechanic, engineer and natural philosopher and literally invented the helicopter and then also drew the mona lisa
Robert Greene said the key to life is having two passions. Become a specialist in one intrinsically fulfilling personal pursuit. Become a generalist in one extrinsically fulfilling professional pursuit.

This was both my parents, both of them have had a wide variety of jobs. My mother was a lumberjack, landscaper, accountant, waitress, general manager, funeral director, medical examiner, flower shop owner, EMT, delivery driver, Census taker, day care owner, nurse, ex-ray technician, butcher, cook, teacher, receptionist. My father was a Semi truck driver, farmer, judge, landscaper, bulldozer operator, delivery driver, EMT, General Manager, business owner, restaurant owner, waiter, cook, country treasurer, mapmaker, police dispatcher, jailer, preacher, oil rig worker.
Who says she didn't? perhaps she just got tired of some of them and came to dislike them that's the benefits of having that much experience across so many fields you have the freedom to do whatever you want and have a job that pleases you and if you become tired of it there's a hundred more out there in various fields to refresh. And while that may be a lifestyle that's up to the person to decide if they enjoy it rather than just settling on one thing and doing it for the rest of your days.

How can your mother and father or father accomplish all of those professions in their lifetime? You're either lying or are straight up delusional and I don't believe you.
I'll be honest, I stubbornly believe I can master multiple skills. The notion that you have to focus on one thing to reach an extremely high level is something I refuse to accept.
Yeah but if you're the best at everything, everyone will expect higher things for you. On the other hand, if you're master of none, and generally not good at anything, people will be happier if you do something good.
Master of all, how could anyone ever achieve that point? I mean, every knowledge on earth? Every skill that is avaible? Such as drawing, poetry, sculpture, etc. Well i'm genuinely SURPRISED if anyone ever reached that state.
Thanks for this video. I began my journey as a C++ developer in 2018 and later transitioned to web development. Eventually, I ventured into mobile application development, leveraging my web development expertise. Along this path, I acquired knowledge in various areas, including Android, iOS, ReactJS, React Native, Django, and more. At times, I questioned whether I had made too many changes, but you helped me realize the importance of evolving with time. Jack of all trades + Master of one
Dude you from india ? Could you share more about youre journey. The reason i asked wether youre born and bred in india or not because im from there too.i wanted to know what is gonna happen in tech and if the things im learning will take me anywhere, im a bsc cs student almost at my last year and let me tell you the system us utter grabage anyone with above average skills would be able to learn it all by themselves;my point being that being present during lecture provides absolutely nothing. I think youre well informed about our indian ed-system , its far behind the European one ; and the European students themselves complain how their system isnt adequate and could you major improvements. Not going to lie im not a really good theory student who loves to cram notes(i was but not as of now) . I like learning stuff by jumping in and hitting a wall forming questions and then finding answers. But they do it the other way around. The rant aside, could you elaborate on youre journey or if you got another chance then how would you do it . Also how s the future.

24 years old, as a jack-of-all-trades, I think it's pretty annoying now. Yes I have dipped my hand into many things. But I'm not great at anything. I can't use those little bits of skills that I've learned for anything professional or to give myself a steady income. What the hell am I supposed to do?
Almost 28 and still not sure im good at manyyy things but I'm not a master of any I'm just good enough not the best it's quite difficult to narrow down what I truly enjoy doing bc I can do pretty much anything but it becomes counter productive since I'm just slightly above average or average but never really a master and can't ever say "this is my forte" .. dilemma
@@hafshssi feel that tbh. And I’m 26 now still chasing all these skills I got and that doesn’t bother me that much, but i try to do it the smart way. Im an architect, so photography, videography, graphic design, 3d art, painting, drawing and general designing can be useful, still my job is doing 1 thing but me as a creative I like to do all of them and trying to be master of all trades. Also i changed my job lately and i’ll do it again with pleasure.
You can use it to open up new horizons and either develop skillsets more quickly or explain things in a way no one does. It's hard to give you an example, but there are certain skillsets in life which require you to be a jack of all trades sort of guy to be successful in it: In sports, you have athletics. In martial arts, you have MMA. In the tech industry, you have cyber security (requires good programming, IT and often electrical engineering skills) These sort of skills put together what you've learned in all smaller, more specialized skills and being a jack of all trades in a group of skills can make your learning curve much more efficient in those skillsets where you need many sub-skills to succeed. I'm not sure if my explanation is that understandable, but maybe you'll see what I mean
Being a jack of all trades is good for running a business well or being in a managering position because you understand the many roles you have to supervise whereas being a specialist is good for making a name for yourself in a certain position you specialized in and being an expert in it. They both have pros and cons and you have to see which one you prefer more : having (on average) more money/ more job security or being more respected/ making a change in society all by yourself. At least that's my opinion
Being able to specialize one thing meaning they are very capable to acquire general knowledge in other field as well as much as they wish to and to any depth they desired if deemed needed, much easiler than those so-called generalist versatile if could be deemed as a talent underestimate the difficulty to become specialized, thinking dumb rigid can still be able to go that far🤷
regardless of being either, its about personality and attitude, just be humble. "If u know something your juniors don't, it doesn't make u a Genius. Be humble." - BatNars.
When I was younger I slowly shifted from the notion of Jack of all Trades and master none to master of one, but you just took it to a next level with representation! Really loved it, that and the fusion+it's over 9000 😂❤
@SiegfriedFafnirsbane Yes, this not for everyone, but I am leaving this option out there for the few that need it so that they don't have to struggle to choose.
So funny that the original phrase is “Jack of all trades but a master of one” not either but rather a balance. Expertise mixed with an understanding of many outside subjects
I’m a jack of all trades. What helped was missing the first day of tech school, and becoming a professional job hopper with a 3mo average. Now I own a one stop shop business thats 5 star rated.
job hopping is like getting a raise every 4-6 months, im already up to 25$ an hour and ive only been working for a little over 1 year but im so good at bullshitting people and ive been doing technical hobbies my whole life.
Yoo I needed this so badly. I just finished law school at the time of writing and was frustrated as I thought it did not reach you a wide enough skillset to be worth the time I put into it. This consoled me a little
One of my personal mantras is to : be a jack of all trades, but a master of one. This is especially vital if you are something like a solo game developer. I work on pretty much everything in my game. I'm not the best artist, composer, level designer, programmer, etc. But i have a knack for telling stories with what I've got, so i leaned into that part the most while letting the other skills I've learned assist me. And it's been helpful. So, if you wanna be a jack of all trades, fine. Wanna be a master of one? Great. As for me, I will be both.🙂
Yessir that's what im doing right now. I can literally do every game development job, i.e GFX, VFX, Animating, Map Development, Story Building, etc. but I am a "master-of-one" at programming. This combo of expertise is quite literally the perfect for solo dev because programming happens to be the most difficult and expensive part of game development.
I would say it's better to work towards being a generalists but not a generalists in the typical definition of it. I don't mean try and master everything but become intermediate at the skills you learn. The skills you learn while working towards it will help in other fields or in your personal life like me i got to a journeymens level skill in the trades industry. Theoretically i buy a house after a few years or working, then while moving in or living there for a month or so the deck outback collapses and the house starts needing all these repairs or starts falling apart. Ill never need to hire a contractor to come and do the repairs
I think I remember this quote from bruce lee which contradicts this type of statement “I fear not man who practiced 10,000 kicks once, I fear the man who practiced 1 kick 10,000 times.” The video although a bit depriving of this generalist topic, is still meant to give you an idea to take concepts of other ideas to forge your own masteries. So to all generalists out there, keep on cooking, building, crafting, typing, writing, weaving, managing, filming and painting away!
Thank you for this video. It was quite a soothing balm to a problem I'm having at the moment. I'm reading a book about learning and skill acquisition, and I'm finding it very interesting, but it is also suggesting that in order to be a high achiever, you must prioritise what you learn, and you must learn for a purpose. I like to learn because I like to learn, I don't *necessarily* have a reason (though often I do). And I do know that there's one skill I am most passionate about developing which is writing/storytelling, but I am always looking for new knowledge to put into my stories and my essays and improve my understanding of the world - as well as the skills that will help me navigate it. Many people that I admire are polymaths to some degree or other. Many are masters of one particular thing. Both are great. I simply think I would grow bored, being a master of only one thing (though I do want to become a master of writing, to some degree; but I think there is endless room to learn and know more there).

You need to master in one field to get famous or rich. Jack of trades won't make you famous because there is always a person who can do better than you in every field. For example Messi is famous, rich and living his dream life because he mastered in football. But a guy who is just good in football, tennis, singing, dancing, swimming and running won't ever be as recognisable than the person who is world famous for a specific talent.
That’s what I thought for the last 35 years….I’m above average at many things but not a professional at one, I think the ending of this video is key for someone like myself, it’s time to master and focus on 1 thing and do it with mastery
It's very rare for a true jack of all trades to not be a master of at least one. And then there's the Renaissance man, the true master of several domains.
After much thought, perhaps a "T Skill Tree" is best, typically. Everything has a skill cap or at least a relative one. Once that it is reached (or before), it is best to specialize in something, but also learning a few other things.
The best solution is probably to find a field where it balances all your skill sets (not interests) into one big umbrella. This enhances your chances of specialising in multiple fields rather than finding connections across contrasting fields and then innovating according to that. It’s important to find a sweet spot.
Be a cog. Masters and jack's will die, their ego wither, forgotten, grinded down by gears of soulles machine of society and marching progress. Individuals are temporary, the machine is eternal
Well,the actual thing in the battle isn't the clear winner! ( However, Generalists rock!😅🎉) But ,it's about exploring and enjoying the journey itself.😊 We've got a short life ,so ig Generalists are able to explore possibilities and experiences,something that's really valuable! So,it's about being in love with the journey and experiences.Prefer being a Generalist!❤
I recently heard the full quote. 'A Jack of All Trades is a Master of None, but often times better than a Master of One." But give it time, and any Jack/or Jill can excel in many things, and any Specialist can learn to generalize.
Simple but very interesting video which come to my RUclips home! I always know that I have many talents, but the conflict of specialist vs generalist always exist in my mind. Thank you for give me fresh perspective about this eternal conflict! ❤🎉
I think groups/societies work best when the two types work together, but both have weaknesses. Do your best to be as skilled as possible, and watch out for risks, prepared to change..
history greatest minds--da vinci, ben franklin, ada lovelace, michael faraday, and many more--were considered to be jack of all trades. It's not about being a generalist; but rather, a master of versatility, a future-ready leader who'd connect the worlds--because future belongs to the adaptable
Specialist is often better for work life balance, and generalist is often better for high ambition targets especially when combined with business skills.
A Jack of all trades, master of one is someone who settled for less and never anything more. People often forget that it’s people like Einstein and Newton (masters of at least one) that pushed sciences forward A Jack of all trades is an everyday man’s job and lifestyle. A master of one is someone who will be important to society, with an affinity for better
@HariKrishna-hp7tu “Masters of at least one” Newton was a master of many. My main point is you at least have to be a master of one to push science forward
It is no longer practical to devote your life to breakthroughs anymore. It is very hard to search for new knowledge when you have to worry about bills and the struggles of mental health (which runs rampant in society these days).
@@rapidcreations4980 I thought you were going to give the argument of “Because breakthroughs just aren’t as impactful as they were few hundred years ago, when each new discovery could turn the world upside down” But seriously? Bills? Mental health? You’re speaking like kids wouldn’t work as chimney sweeps to earn pennies back then. And mental health support is on an all time high right now. Why do you think you see so many mental health problems online? It’s because we’re normalizing support of it in recent years I get the argument of “No working man can just devote their lives to study” because not anyone can be like the great minds of back then, either because of limited resources, or because they don’t fit that role (which is why most working men are generalists). But compared to when people like Newton existed in this Information Age, with the access of the internet, it couldn’t be a more perfect time to devote your life to as least one thing. Be it an actual science or just some hobby you really like that, who knows, might be able to impact something
@@rapidcreations4980 scientific research nowadays is so complicated that you will not make it without good funding and a team. All simple things discovered ages ago, now we dealing with quantum physics. It's still possible though, but more unlikely
That’s exactly what I’m trying to. I’m by nature a jack of all trades and quick to learn stuff, thanks to my ADHD. I have in depth knowledge about fitness and training, in depth knowledge about automotive journalism, I know marketing, sales, finance, good at networking and constantly self learning. But my profession is that of a filmmaker because I believe filmmakers have the largest threshold for influencing along with writers.
I'm not so sure about the black bear when you have the brown bear. I assume you watched TierZoo's vid on bears and yea being a bit smaller lets black bear able to climb better than brown bears but not by much. Cuz yes, Brown Bears can also climb trees and have bigger bulk that helps against predators.
It also comes down to personality. Typically, more introverted people go on to become specialists and don't mind having someone do all the tedious management work for them; while more extroverted people go on to become generalists and gravitate towards management and its more social demands.
I remembered a video about being the jack of all trades or a master of one, in the video they said like a master of one is a better worker because they are a master in a trade while a jack of all trades is a better manager because of it's knowledge it has in many trades.
I really don't know why people think that by becoming a manager you multiply your ability. Management is a skill in itself. You can "stuck" doing "the same" thing and be simply irreplaceable by expertise
I very much needed this perspective. I'm studying Software Engineering but I know a ton of other things from mechanical principles to story and animation. But realizing that I can be both a generalist AND a specialist in some specific field (which I'm thinking of going into Computer Graphics as my specialty in Software Engineering) makes me feel so much better about this path. When I graduate I will basically have the skills and knowledge I need to become versatile in the field!
We need both, like a head needs a tail in order to have make a coin, and coin is valuable. Debate all you want about the value of the coin, the fact still remains, there is value.
Mastering one thing usually REQUIRES different skill sets and eventually ends up with someone knowing many things and being good at most of them, while beeing particularly good at one or two
I'm turning 22, ans my curriculum vitae might be bigger than every person who graduated highschool with me. My curriculum is very versatile. It goes from musical instruments I play, goes through theatre, creative writing, programming, all up to languages I speak. And yet I don't have any college degree. Don't let schooling interfere with your education.
i swear to god I already liked the video but when I saw them do fusion I literally imagined goten and trunks 🤣🤣 **omfg I wrote the comment before I finished the video lmfao they finished with over 9000 😂😂🤣
What better, knowing 100 word in language or 1 word in 100 languages. Being specialist is always better. But being specialist in two things even better. 100 words in Russian and 100 words in English > 100 words in English > 1 word of every language.
know to Speak 1 language only very very fluently or Know major languages Conversationally? now tell me which is better? jack of all trades is generally who is Good enough or even "above average" and knowing 1 word is like not even average I know good enough english and You are able to understand me clearly What will a fluent spanish speaker do here?, he doesn't know english I currently know 4 languages.🙂
@@Faizan29353 man, here's the problem, there's no such thing as average. So, I don't think that I said something wrong. And, I've seen a lot of "Jack's of all trades", these guys doesn't know/understand a lot of basic stuff in sphere, where they trying to get a job, it's annoying. Like, man, when a specialist is a specialist, he has a piece of paper that says "He knows everything he should". So, being Jack of all trades in my opinion means being a complete dummy in everything. And a fluent Spanish speaker will be in his sphere. Doing his job. But if he wants to work as Spanish-English translator he must learn English until he's fluent in it. (I'm Russian, and learned Englsih just cause it was in my life, not cause of school or not cause I wanted, just cause it was here with me, like, for last 2 years (I'm 23 now). Never learned grammar and stuff, just watched a lot of videos on RUclips. I have some skill I'm trying to say, but even like, if I want to work in English sphere, I need to master it to level it needs. No exception In my sphere (IT/programming) was a lot of jack of all trades dummys, when you ask him, does he know that he can write a script for winget to use .exe files and not .msi cause repacked programs from internet are freaking dangerous and he says no, you want to kill him)
@@addpowersstreams5364 I mean, In a job, Yes you do need to have a skillset but Generally in life, Like what if you know a bit of plumbing and electrical work you won't have to call someone for even the most minor inconveniences I am not saying to be "dummys who pretend they know stuff" but actually know just enough that you don't need to master it For example We learn Maths now we are not PHD grade level mathematicians, but we do use math quiet a lot. Yea we may not master "Assembly language" but if we learn python scripting or tech knowledge in general we unlock a whole new world to explore Same with learning basic survival skills, camping skills So you can explore some parts of the Earth You could not before we are not "masters like F1 car drivers" but we are good enough that Driving a car or riding a bike is useful to us
for a knowledge pursuer, master-of-all is a dream but also a lifelong ultimate goal. Pioneers are those philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians. They have strived to riddle out unknowns by meticulous speculations, observations, and demonstrations. Good and qualified Jack-of-All Trades transfer these ideas to useful products that improve our lives, but nowadays most Jack-of-All Trades have more emphasis on "Management skills" and "Short-term KPI/Profits" instead of really understanding and respecting science. On the other hand, becoming a Master-of-One and Jack-of-All-Trades person sounds good, but it is really difficult to become a "Master-of-one" because of the tremendous time one subject requires. However, I believe being a knowledge pursuer aiming to master-of-all is the most proper attitude as a human-being should have rather than touting to be the Jack of All Trades.
From personal experience: I’ve been a Network Engineer for Fortune 500 companies, served in the Military, and now I work in the sales field. I learned to become a specialist in each of these fields as my job required, but as a result of touching on many different experiences it enables me to have the cross knowledge and industry flexibility required to be in upper-management! You must first demonstrate mastery in a specific field to find success, but upward growth comes from branching out, and being able to help a wide range of people inside, and outside of your organization!

Master of all, how could anyone ever achieve that point? I mean, every knowledge on earth? Every skill that is avaible? Such as drawing, poetry, sculpture, etc. Well i'm genuinely SURPRISED if anyone ever reached that state.

As a “jack of all trades” I really enjoyed this. It kinda made my day actually. I especially loved the Dragon Ball reference 😂 keep up the good work!
Same here. Ig most people in the world are jack of all trades
Thanks for this video.
I began my journey as a C++ developer in 2018 and later transitioned to web development. Eventually, I ventured into mobile application development, leveraging my web development expertise. Along this path, I acquired knowledge in various areas, including Android, iOS, ReactJS, React Native, Django, and more. At times, I questioned whether I had made too many changes, but you helped me realize the importance of evolving with time.
Jack of all trades + Master of one
There's a long way to go 🥳
Dude you from india ? Could you share more about youre journey. The reason i asked wether youre born and bred in india or not because im from there too.i wanted to know what is gonna happen in tech and if the things im learning will take me anywhere, im a bsc cs student almost at my last year and let me tell you the system us utter grabage anyone with above average skills would be able to learn it all by themselves;my point being that being present during lecture provides absolutely nothing. I think youre well informed about our indian ed-system , its far behind the European one ; and the European students themselves complain how their system isnt adequate and could you major improvements.
Not going to lie im not a really good theory student who loves to cram notes(i was but not as of now) . I like learning stuff by jumping in and hitting a wall forming questions and then finding answers. But they do it the other way around.
The rant aside, could you elaborate on youre journey or if you got another chance then how would you do it . Also how s the future.

Most people are not good "enough " in one skill
Yess. People are saying that being a master of one is worse when many people are actually not even master of one, just decent at one.
To be fair, it's not easy to find your passion. And if you already know what you like, dedicating your life to this is whole another matter
24 years old, as a jack-of-all-trades, I think it's pretty annoying now. Yes I have dipped my hand into many things. But I'm not great at anything. I can't use those little bits of skills that I've learned for anything professional or to give myself a steady income. What the hell am I supposed to do?
find the one you really want to master and be both at the same time
pick 1-3 things you like best and seek to get better at them. you have plenty of time.
Speaking as someone who was there
Almost 28 and still not sure im good at manyyy things but I'm not a master of any I'm just good enough not the best it's quite difficult to narrow down what I truly enjoy doing bc I can do pretty much anything but it becomes counter productive since I'm just slightly above average or average but never really a master and can't ever say "this is my forte" .. dilemma
@@hafshssi feel that tbh. And I’m 26 now still chasing all these skills I got and that doesn’t bother me that much, but i try to do it the smart way. Im an architect, so photography, videography, graphic design, 3d art, painting, drawing and general designing can be useful, still my job is doing 1 thing but me as a creative I like to do all of them and trying to be master of all trades. Also i changed my job lately and i’ll do it again with pleasure.
You can use it to open up new horizons and either develop skillsets more quickly or explain things in a way no one does. It's hard to give you an example, but there are certain skillsets in life which require you to be a jack of all trades sort of guy to be successful in it:
In sports, you have athletics.
In martial arts, you have MMA.
In the tech industry, you have cyber security (requires good programming, IT and often electrical engineering skills)
These sort of skills put together what you've learned in all smaller, more specialized skills and being a jack of all trades in a group of skills can make your learning curve much more efficient in those skillsets where you need many sub-skills to succeed.
I'm not sure if my explanation is that understandable, but maybe you'll see what I mean
Being a jack of all trades is good for running a business well or being in a managering position because you understand the many roles you have to supervise whereas being a specialist is good for making a name for yourself in a certain position you specialized in and being an expert in it. They both have pros and cons and you have to see which one you prefer more : having (on average) more money/ more job security or being more respected/ making a change in society all by yourself. At least that's my opinion
For example running a small business vs being a middle man in a big corporation
Being a generalist is mathematically better.
Being able to specialize one thing meaning they are very capable to acquire general knowledge in other field as well as much as they wish to and to any depth they desired if deemed needed, much easiler than those so-called generalist
versatile if could be deemed as a talent underestimate the difficulty to become specialized, thinking dumb rigid can still be able to go that far🤷

Why choose between these two? Just be a King of All Trades. If there's a Jack, there must be a King.
The average person can't do that.
@SiegfriedFafnirsbane Yes, this not for everyone, but I am leaving this option out there for the few that need it so that they don't have to struggle to choose.

I’m a jack of all trades. What helped was missing the first day of tech school, and becoming a professional job hopper with a 3mo average. Now I own a one stop shop business thats 5 star rated.
job hopping is like getting a raise every 4-6 months, im already up to 25$ an hour and ive only been working for a little over 1 year but im so good at bullshitting people and ive been doing technical hobbies my whole life.
Yoo I needed this so badly. I just finished law school at the time of writing and was frustrated as I thought it did not reach you a wide enough skillset to be worth the time I put into it. This consoled me a little
One of my personal mantras is to : be a jack of all trades, but a master of one.
This is especially vital if you are something like a solo game developer.
I work on pretty much everything in my game. I'm not the best artist, composer, level designer, programmer, etc. But i have a knack for telling stories with what I've got, so i leaned into that part the most while letting the other skills I've learned assist me.
And it's been helpful.
So, if you wanna be a jack of all trades, fine. Wanna be a master of one? Great.
As for me, I will be both.🙂
Yessir that's what im doing right now. I can literally do every game development job, i.e GFX, VFX, Animating, Map Development, Story Building, etc. but I am a "master-of-one" at programming. This combo of expertise is quite literally the perfect for solo dev because programming happens to be the most difficult and expensive part of game development.
you got a game?
Lol I have already read 3 comments of game dev including me. Ig only game devs are true jack of all trades
Exceptionally Explained! Kudos to the creators! 👏👏👏
I would say it's better to work towards being a generalists but not a generalists in the typical definition of it. I don't mean try and master everything but become intermediate at the skills you learn. The skills you learn while working towards it will help in other fields or in your personal life like me i got to a journeymens level skill in the trades industry. Theoretically i buy a house after a few years or working, then while moving in or living there for a month or so the deck outback collapses and the house starts needing all these repairs or starts falling apart. Ill never need to hire a contractor to come and do the repairs

The video although a bit depriving of this generalist topic, is still meant to give you an idea to take concepts of other ideas to forge your own masteries. So to all generalists out there, keep on cooking, building, crafting, typing, writing, weaving, managing, filming and painting away!
4:11 love how they do fusion from dragon ball 😂. And the kid ''it's over 9000!" 😂
Best part of the video fr😂❤
Thank you for this video. It was quite a soothing balm to a problem I'm having at the moment. I'm reading a book about learning and skill acquisition, and I'm finding it very interesting, but it is also suggesting that in order to be a high achiever, you must prioritise what you learn, and you must learn for a purpose. I like to learn because I like to learn, I don't *necessarily* have a reason (though often I do). And I do know that there's one skill I am most passionate about developing which is writing/storytelling, but I am always looking for new knowledge to put into my stories and my essays and improve my understanding of the world - as well as the skills that will help me navigate it. Many people that I admire are polymaths to some degree or other. Many are masters of one particular thing. Both are great. I simply think I would grow bored, being a master of only one thing (though I do want to become a master of writing, to some degree; but I think there is endless room to learn and know more there).

This is what I call quality content. I loved the ideas, arguments, animation, and sound. Well Done.
You need to master in one field to get famous or rich. Jack of trades won't make you famous because there is always a person who can do better than you in every field. For example Messi is famous, rich and living his dream life because he mastered in football. But a guy who is just good in football, tennis, singing, dancing, swimming and running won't ever be as recognisable than the person who is world famous for a specific talent.

Jack of all trades master of none is always better than mastering one
That’s what I thought for the last 35 years….I’m above average at many things but not a professional at one, I think the ending of this video is key for someone like myself, it’s time to master and focus on 1 thing and do it with mastery
Some times master of one is sometimes is better they will have a basic knowledge about other fields but they will be the top on their field
It's very rare for a true jack of all trades to not be a master of at least one.
And then there's the Renaissance man, the true master of several domains.
After much thought, perhaps a "T Skill Tree" is best, typically. Everything has a skill cap or at least a relative one. Once that it is reached (or before), it is best to specialize in something, but also learning a few other things.
Specialist is great when the going is good.
But when the battlefield changes they're merely a one trick pony.
Wow, this is seriously wonderfully made. Thank you for this video
What does it mean
The best solution is probably to find a field where it balances all your skill sets (not interests) into one big umbrella. This enhances your chances of specialising in multiple fields rather than finding connections across contrasting fields and then innovating according to that. It’s important to find a sweet spot.

Being a specialist is great as long as your specialization is in demand. If it becomes obsolete then you have a problem.
A Jack of all trades, master of one is someone who settled for less and never anything more. People often forget that it’s people like Einstein and Newton (masters of at least one) that pushed sciences forward
A Jack of all trades is an everyday man’s job and lifestyle. A master of one is someone who will be important to society, with an affinity for better
@HariKrishna-hp7tu “Masters of at least one” Newton was a master of many. My main point is you at least have to be a master of one to push science forward
It is no longer practical to devote your life to breakthroughs anymore. It is very hard to search for new knowledge when you have to worry about bills and the struggles of mental health (which runs rampant in society these days).
@@rapidcreations4980 I thought you were going to give the argument of “Because breakthroughs just aren’t as impactful as they were few hundred years ago, when each new discovery could turn the world upside down”
But seriously? Bills? Mental health? You’re speaking like kids wouldn’t work as chimney sweeps to earn pennies back then. And mental health support is on an all time high right now. Why do you think you see so many mental health problems online? It’s because we’re normalizing support of it in recent years
I get the argument of “No working man can just devote their lives to study” because not anyone can be like the great minds of back then, either because of limited resources, or because they don’t fit that role (which is why most working men are generalists). But compared to when people like Newton existed in this Information Age, with the access of the internet, it couldn’t be a more perfect time to devote your life to as least one thing. Be it an actual science or just some hobby you really like that, who knows, might be able to impact something
@@rapidcreations4980 scientific research nowadays is so complicated that you will not make it without good funding and a team. All simple things discovered ages ago, now we dealing with quantum physics. It's still possible though, but more unlikely
That’s exactly what I’m trying to. I’m by nature a jack of all trades and quick to learn stuff, thanks to my ADHD. I have in depth knowledge about fitness and training, in depth knowledge about automotive journalism, I know marketing, sales, finance, good at networking and constantly self learning. But my profession is that of a filmmaker because I believe filmmakers have the largest threshold for influencing along with writers.
This is awesome!
Good luck.
There's a reason why the black bear is the best bear when there's such species like the polar bear
I'm not so sure about the black bear when you have the brown bear. I assume you watched TierZoo's vid on bears and yea being a bit smaller lets black bear able to climb better than brown bears but not by much. Cuz yes, Brown Bears can also climb trees and have bigger bulk that helps against predators.
Polar bear easily the best bear
It also comes down to personality. Typically, more introverted people go on to become specialists and don't mind having someone do all the tedious management work for them; while more extroverted people go on to become generalists and gravitate towards management and its more social demands.
If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that specialists tend to become _idiots_ about everything else.
or minus the else
I remembered a video about being the jack of all trades or a master of one, in the video they said like a master of one is a better worker because they are a master in a trade while a jack of all trades is a better manager because of it's knowledge it has in many trades.
jack of all trades, master of one, and that one thing is everything
You underestimate what mastery is.
The fusion in the end really showed what inspires the animator and artist
always remember that a master of all needs a master of one and vice versa
Specialization is literally what built our society and systems and technologies
I really don't know why people think that by becoming a manager you multiply your ability. Management is a skill in itself. You can "stuck" doing "the same" thing and be simply irreplaceable by expertise
this channel, at least, tried to say that it multiplied the effect of applying your skill, not your skill by itself, from what I understood
Yea a simple management guy cant manage every sort of operation. Most management ppl dont get tht
I very much needed this perspective. I'm studying Software Engineering but I know a ton of other things from mechanical principles to story and animation. But realizing that I can be both a generalist AND a specialist in some specific field (which I'm thinking of going into Computer Graphics as my specialty in Software Engineering) makes me feel so much better about this path. When I graduate I will basically have the skills and knowledge I need to become versatile in the field!
It is definitely better to have a Jack-of-all-trades than a master of none
I really enjoyed the explanation. The animation style is so captivative, great work ❤.
Love the animation+informations!!!
I think being a master of one is not bad because you are so good at one thing that you can express it in a thousand ways
We need both, like a head needs a tail in order to have make a coin, and coin is valuable. Debate all you want about the value of the coin, the fact still remains, there is value.
Now you sir are quite brilliant
A specialist definitely lands you a job more easily.
But I find is very boring and happy to do so many things haha
How about learning many things and just specialize in one more than the others?
Nice
Mastering one thing usually REQUIRES different skill sets and eventually ends up with someone knowing many things and being good at most of them, while beeing particularly good at one or two
My talent at life is being abe to get good at everything, but not more than "good" at anything
"The one who learns 1000 skills isn't better than the one who tries a skill 1000 times"
But i think both are just good
Wait, how about a Master-of-All
Hmm?
Both are extrememly important to have in a society, but for most people, being a generalist will help you in life more.
very nicely interpreted the dilemma. Awesome
Amazing video and animation!!
It's good to be a generalist in construction, plumbing etc

I like the simple answer of "just find the time and effort to do both".
What better, knowing 100 word in language or 1 word in 100 languages. Being specialist is always better. But being specialist in two things even better.
100 words in Russian and 100 words in English > 100 words in English > 1 word of every language.
know to Speak 1 language only very very fluently or
Know major languages Conversationally? now tell me which is better?
jack of all trades is generally who is Good enough or even "above average"
and knowing 1 word is like not even average
I know good enough english
and You are able to understand me clearly
What will a fluent spanish speaker do here?, he doesn't know english
I currently know 4 languages.🙂
@@Faizan29353 man, here's the problem, there's no such thing as average. So, I don't think that I said something wrong. And, I've seen a lot of "Jack's of all trades", these guys doesn't know/understand a lot of basic stuff in sphere, where they trying to get a job, it's annoying. Like, man, when a specialist is a specialist, he has a piece of paper that says "He knows everything he should". So, being Jack of all trades in my opinion means being a complete dummy in everything.
And a fluent Spanish speaker will be in his sphere. Doing his job. But if he wants to work as Spanish-English translator he must learn English until he's fluent in it.
(I'm Russian, and learned Englsih just cause it was in my life, not cause of school or not cause I wanted, just cause it was here with me, like, for last 2 years (I'm 23 now). Never learned grammar and stuff, just watched a lot of videos on RUclips. I have some skill I'm trying to say, but even like, if I want to work in English sphere, I need to master it to level it needs. No exception
In my sphere (IT/programming) was a lot of jack of all trades dummys, when you ask him, does he know that he can write a script for winget to use .exe files and not .msi cause repacked programs from internet are freaking dangerous and he says no, you want to kill him)
@@addpowersstreams5364 ah now i understand ya
@@addpowersstreams5364 I mean, In a job, Yes you do need to have a skillset but Generally in life, Like what if you know a bit of plumbing and electrical work
you won't have to call someone for even the most minor inconveniences

but actually know just enough that you don't need to master it
For example
We learn Maths
now we are not PHD grade level mathematicians, but we do use math quiet a lot.

but if we learn python scripting or tech knowledge in general we unlock a whole new world to explore

for a knowledge pursuer, master-of-all is a dream but also a lifelong ultimate goal. Pioneers are those philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians. They have strived to riddle out unknowns by meticulous speculations, observations, and demonstrations. Good and qualified Jack-of-All Trades transfer these ideas to useful products that improve our lives, but nowadays most Jack-of-All Trades have more emphasis on "Management skills" and "Short-term KPI/Profits" instead of really understanding and respecting science. On the other hand, becoming a Master-of-One and Jack-of-All-Trades person sounds good, but it is really difficult to become a "Master-of-one" because of the tremendous time one subject requires. However, I believe being a knowledge pursuer aiming to master-of-all is the most proper attitude as a human-being should have rather than touting to be the Jack of All Trades.
2:43 but u will need specialist for that
From personal experience: I’ve been a Network Engineer for Fortune 500 companies, served in the Military, and now I work in the sales field. I learned to become a specialist in each of these fields as my job required, but as a result of touching on many different experiences it enables me to have the cross knowledge and industry flexibility required to be in upper-management!
You must first demonstrate mastery in a specific field to find success, but upward growth comes from branching out, and being able to help a wide range of people inside, and outside of your organization!
