Any particular thing, doesn't matter. People always tell me I need to focus on 1 thing in life but I refuse. I rather be knowledgeable in many areas than only knowledgeable in one, what do you guys think?

I have always enjoyed knowing a fair amount (more than a little) about a lot of things. I can probably think of 30 subjects that I can speak knowledgeably on, from car repair to electronics to coin collecting to photography to writing.
Don't let people pigeon-hole you. Enjoy everything and you'll feel better about yourself.

Both! I tend to pick up little tidbits of knowledge all the time. I look upon all learning as fun and interesting. Those things that I find particularly interesting, I will pursue more knowledge on. Until I am either satiated on the topic, or I run out of sources.

I am with you. I become very avid about certain projects, dealings, studies, etc. etc. Then I learn them, either I resonate with them or not, and become interested in another avenue of knowledge. I don't feel it has hurt my life: however, when it comes to consistency and earning a living the "normal" ways, it is looked upon as being a 'flake' (which I am sure you've ((if you are like me)) been accused of) or irresponsible and somewhat of a hopeless romantic. But I can dig where you are coming from...

my darling u rr so correct. to survive in this society as it exists today it is most definitely wise to be as versatile as possible. meaning the more advanced ur knowledge is the better able u r of coping with the everyday ups and downs of the world.imagine this allur life for instance u`ve been a teacher with no other skill or knowledge, supposedly a ban is imposed upon ur country and schools r no longer legal to be opened. what then happens to u? ur out of ajob u have no back up and u can`t seem to find any other way outbut if while being a teacher u were also at the same time, a cosmetologist,an experienced waitress and u have some form of idea of being nail technician would u then be out of a job if this siituation were to arise? i think not. so if te teaching never worked out u have more than enough back to fall on.so yesit is good to have varied imagination henceforth giving you the drive to do almost any and every thing u set ur mind to,.

I would rather know a little about alot of things. Conversations are very boring with people who can only talk about the one thing they know alot about!!!!!

I would rather know a little about a lot of things, if you know a lot about one thing people think you are obsessed with that thing and are sort of freaky.

I would rather know a lot about a lot of things, but. . . I would rather know a little about a lot of things than a lot about one thing.

People that know 'everything' about one thing. are boring to talk with.
Know as much as you can about a bunch of things.. but DO have a major interest. Tell them that your ONE THING is 'trivia'... then you can be a real Know-it-All in EVERYTHING
peace
