Jack Of All Trades Master Of None

 


Jack of all trades, master of none..

We have all heard this phrase from ever.. I never gave any thought to this phrase, until very recent.. People around us, use this phrase mainly to denote the people who are doing a lot of stuff and do know a lot of stuff from a variety of fields.. This is however not a compliment, rather they say that the people who are doing multiple stuff at once, tend to be not good at anything..

This is our preconceived notion about a person who is excited about a lot of things.. However, this is not true.. As it may seem very relevant to some people as people who do a lot of stuff gets less amount of time to focus on specific stuff, so there is a chance they will not be a master of a single trait, like someone who is doing only one thing every day for years..

But in practical experience, it has been seen that the opposite happens most of the time.. As people who have diverted interests and try to do multiple things over a period of time tend to be more successful in any of the specific things, rather than the person who is only doing one thing..

Even the phrase also says- “Jack of all trades master of none, but still is better than master of one”..

We can take many examples, like Leonardo Da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin and any other people, who made any of our present-day advancements possible were the people who were interested in multiple fields.. They not only did one thing successfully but rather they did a variety of things at once and provided good and even ground-breaking results..

These people are known as renaissance people or polymaths.. They are interested in many things, and mainly they connect the things they are interested in and that mainly leads to something that is never before thought off..

I also think that people should diversify their personalities.. That is to say, they should try, do and hear and read a variety of stuff to get an idea of what they like.. At first, it may seem taught to do soo.. But it is not… You will be surprised..

Why Being True To Yourself Is Very Important

Image
Finally, my view on being yourself is changed... Actually, I can say that I have grown and accepted some harsh truths that I was ignoring till now...  So when I decided to change myself and grow, I started picking out the habits that I hated in myself, and I took all of them and compared them to others, and changed them… so that I could remove all my weaknesses..  But the truth is that I was removing my strengths..  From childhood, I have been an emotional person, a hopeless romantic, and I like doing crazy stuff… like dancing on the roads with my friends just bcz I am happy or the road looks or feels good to me,... but I didn’t do that for last year and a half bcz I felt that I am bad and foolish for doing so.. But that wasn’t the case.. It was never the case..  So when I remove those aspects of my life I felt a hollow inside of me.. Bcz it is normal for me to go out and click a lot of pictures of random stuff and then edit them and post them on my socials.. Bcz I f...

Guru vs Guide

Image
In ancient Indian traditions, gurukuls are one of the bases of life.. Life was divided into 4 stages, i.e. Brahmacharya, Grihastha, Vanaprastha and Sannyas.. At the beginning of life, a child went to ashrams as a school and stay there for their entire childhood, and teenage years to learn and study.. It mostly started at the age of 5 years and went until the age of 25 years.. In this time, the children had to work really hard, for their own living and they are taught many moral and technical lessons.. The gurus provide everything they needed in daily life and help them in deciding their life paths.. Children learn Vedas and other scriptures, science, history, philosophy, warfare and other skill-based subjects.. From that day Indians had huge importance to the gurus, as they are the people who were most knowledgeable and selfless to serve the nation and the kids of the nation and the society.. But in the middle ages, the gurukul system went abolished and in the British era, it was repl...
