Jack of all trades is a master of none... submitted by emaelshaikh on August 18, 2022, 4:55pm ...but better than a master of one

Applicable to life! submitted by dailyreader on August 11, 2023, 5:26pm This was a super helpful read, especially considering the pressure on parents and kids these days to figure out your specialty early in life. It encouraged me and my family to continue trying lots of different things.
