    As Adam Savage once said:

    Jack of all trades, master of none, though often better than a master of one

    and that’s the hill I’m willing to die on

      There is a lot to be said for being a jack of all trades. I can do a lot of things in my day-to-day life with relative ease, like cooking a meal or working on my car. I also enjoy reading the news and understanding what it says, and if there is something that I’m unsure of, I know where to go to find out what I’m missing. If I were really good with one thing, sure, I’d potentially have a higher paying job in that field, but I’d be missing out on a lot of other things.
