In the past few weeks, I have been asked by at least four different people (yes, I am a very busy person) if I think I am a generalist. This is an interesting question because generally, it can be assumed that you are a generalist by nature. However, there are some people that are just naturally better at a particular skill or area of your life and you may be better at that skill or area of your life than others.
This is a particularly good question because it gives us an opportunity to actually know if we are a generalist as opposed to a specialist.
An example of a specialist is a doctor. Doctors don’t work on a few specific diseases and they’re generally better at diagnosing them than most other doctors. They have a good knowledge base and are able to do a wide range of different things and they can specialize in certain areas. This is a bit different and as a general rule, specialists are more likely to be generalists.
The main argument is that most people aren’t interested in being in a specialty. If you want to find a person who works on a particular disease and specializes in a specific area then you need to go to the doctor and look for a specialist. Since it’s a specialized area this means the specialist is more likely to be a generalist. The fact that the doctor works on a particular disease just means that the doctor is more likely to work on something specific.
If you are more interested in specializing in a certain area then you are more likely to have a partner in that area. You are more likely to be a generalist, and thus your partner is more likely to be a specialist.
If you want to specialize in something then you are more likely to specialize in that one area, and thus be more likely to hire a partner to work on that area. You are also more likely to be a generalist, and thus your partner will be more likely to be a specialist.
For example: I have a very strong tendency to go into finance, but I also work with a lot of graphic design and art. This means that I can partner with someone who can do that, but I cannot do it myself. With this said, I can partner with someone who can do something that I would like to do, but I cannot do it myself.
The most common example for that is the idea of specialization. If it is something that is an area where there is a lot of division of labor and specialization of skills, then I would say that it is a specialized area. If it is something that is a single-sider job, then I would say that it is a single-sider job.
I’m not sure that the term “specialized area” is always accurate in the sense that it implies that the division of labor and specialization is done by a single entity, but I think that it has been overused a lot. There is something about specialization that makes it difficult to find a way to divide up work that is both effective and efficient.
I think there is something to that too. For instance, even if we consider all the different software that you can use to create different websites, it just isn’t that simple to create websites from scratch. I could create a new website, but I wouldn’t know which page to put on it. The same goes for painting. If you have a new construction project, you will probably have to be a little creative.
