become a generalist. specialization makes you efficient. generalization makes you dangerous. what it actually means: • learn across domains → math, physics, software, economics, biology. patterns repeat across fields. • connect ideas → innovation happens at the intersection, not inside silos. • adapt fast → when one field shifts, you don’t collapse, you pivot. • see systems → specialists see parts, generalists see the whole • build end-to-end → from idea → design → implementation → delivery the world rewards specialists in stable environments. it rewards generalists when things are changing. right now, everything is changing. don’t just go deep. go wide, then stack depth where it matters.
