Hear, hear to being a generalist!

Although I do sometimes get niggling feelings that I should have specialized, there is also the part of me who knows I would have been more likely to get trapped that way. Better -- for me -- to have more directions to travel when the mood strikes.

One thing I never have a regret about -- not going into sales. Definitely not a path for me!

Great reflection -- it's always good to stop once in a while to look back. I find that often it helps you to move forward.

An expert is afraid that eventually, their job will not be relevant.
