Richard Mac Manus on the tensions of being a General Ist vs Specializat Ion. Why is this highly intelligent person stuck doing menial jobs like creating online ASP forms and converting MsVisio diagrams to PDF 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week? Ok I'm exaggerating. But it's still a good question: why aren't I satisfied in my career? And the sad answer is: because I'm a Generalist.
Conversely, Flemming Funch recognizes Leonardo Da Vinci as the ultimate General Ist/Renaissance Man, and notes What I find interesting about that is that Leonardo's multi-talented renaissance GenIus is in many ways similar to what many bloggers (WebLog) are doing nowadays. You're interested in Many Things and feel free to jump around and study one thing or another.
