EP 31: How to Be Better Than Most People, at Most Things [A Guide to Becoming an Expert-Generalist]
from The Pat Flynn Show
In this episode, I play back an interview where I was asked about generalism--what it is, and how to develop it. In this talk with Dr. T, I unpack this philosophy of mine, while giving examples of how it applies to fitness, business, creativity, and life. I also make the case of why generalist (being better than most people, at most things) > specialist (being the best at only one) in almost every regard, and how people are gravely mislead when focusing too much (or for too long) in one direction. This is perhaps the my greatest exposition of generalism yet. That's why I wanted to share.
