I can’t specialize.

What I realized recently is that I can’t specialize. 

There are a lot of things that I’m interested in, care about, pursue, practice, create, love, learn about…But I can’t specialize. My interests are too broad. I launched a blog about food a couple of months ago, and now it sits dormant…Why? Because some other shiny object was dangled in my face. Life got busy. I got invested in other projects.

I still love to cook and more than cook, experiment in the kitchen, but I can’t specialize.

“Wise people” always say to find the one thing that you love and devote yourself to it.

But you know, I don’t want to be great at one thing. I want to kick ass at a multitude of things. I want to cook, and travel, and read to my kids, and date my wife, and shoot pictures, and design, and study, and build, and program, and solve. And to be honest, I think I’ve been created capable of doing all of that really well.

I can’t specialize.

I’m not going to be a great designer, but I will be really good.

I’m not going to be a great writer, but I will be really good.

I’m not going to be a great cook, but I will be really good.

I’m not going to be a great many things, but I will do really good things.

All props and power to the specialists, but I’m not like you.

All that being said, I’m resurrecting this little blog. This will once again house my interests. Dropping the specialty sites. Bringing it all under one umbrella. Screw the narrow branding, the SEO, the unified story.

I am who I am and I’ll say what I say to whoever is listening on this channel.

REDESIGN COMING SOON.
