This is so true, my father was the most educated guy in his family, whereas my uncle who wasn't interested in education tried a bunch of things. Everyone in the family thought my uncle's a loser, he'll never amount to anything big as he never went to a college. However after working a dozen of jobs(whereas my father stuck to only one job) and trying half a dozen of business ideas finally one of his business idea worked and today my uncle is a multi-millionaire. What my father has earned in his entire life, my uncle maybe could earn in a month. Specialization is good but it narrows down the perspective. One should be curious about everything in life.

Success is defined to us by society and if you don't come to the expectation then you are labeled as a failure, they rush you to specialize at an early age before you learn how to think, try to make you narrow expert and the problem is that we fell for these notions. There is no definition of success and head starts are overrated. Explore diverse expertise and broaden your horizons.

Students in school say that because they never see the rules being applied in practical life. I think teachers should teach students using practical life examples because currently students train for the exam instead of training for the practical life. Current way of education is making them narrow-sighted. They just memorize the information and then forget it after the exam. Students can diversify their knowledge by focusing on their positive hobbies. Those hobbies can branch out to various fields which may help in achieving career success. The interest of students needs to be priortized as well. Their are many other ways of branching out as well but focusing students to memorize some subjects does not seem to be a good idea.

You’ll have lots of gaps but if you focus on an end goal of getting the project built, you’ll learn a lot by the time its complete. Try to find any reason to build something and never say “no”. Once you have some basic skills, be willing to take low paid contract work and bid on Upwork jobs. You’ll get ignored like 95-99% of the time but every now and then you will get positions and you learn A LOT from those.

I started to watch this video a year ago, at the time I understood his point but I was still skeptical about my future I had a late start I dropped out my college freshman year went back to hometown and go to a regular school and restart two years later so I started sophomore year 22, and find my major in 23. Now in the first semester of finding my major, I find out a business idea in my daily life by selling second hand if it’s general people they will give up cuz so low end but I had many turbulent experiences so I didn’t give up and wanna try some entrepreneur experience, and my major courses are being impeded and the professor doesn’t focus on me anymore. I was doubting myself but in the middle of my try I find out other business and international business which can be profitable and now I try there are many obstacles I earned my first bucket of money and I try to make it bigger by expanding internationally. While my classmate who early specialize is still in class studying although wen to internship early than me.

I've struggled with specializing my entire life. Only found out recently I've got ADD, without the hyperactive part. I'm doing pretty well in tech consulting with a degree and certificates in biochemistry, finance and accounting. The message is that generalist should be encouraged as much as specialists. I always struggled to stay up in class because of my attention issues. And I've lost my train of thought. Update 2 years later: I'm in banking now 😂

Problem here is that VC's put pressure on people to be a good businessman early in life and be specialized. I heard this gets used in Silicon Valley a lot but if your a Biotech Person in able to be a great leader you need multiple skills in Business, navigating FDA Regulations and a Post Doc or MD to succeed in this industry.

This makes me feel good as a liberal arts student.

I think it's very important to not undermine or even think that generals are better than specialized people. The world needs both of them. This Ted talk just shows that it's okay to take slow, meandering path before you reach success and never give up even though your friends or colleagues that started specializing way early than you already way more successful than you're.

I didn't think I needed to hear this TedTalk, but it's so nice to see scientific prove that trying a range of things is, in many cases, a great option. I personally never liked the idea of sticking to one job or one creative outlet, I have always felt the urge and desire to try many different things, which felt like I was lost on my path since everyone else already had figured life out for themselves. Deep down I knew I'm making the right choice for myself anyway, nice to have a little backup support talking about it in a more success-driven way as well.

It’s amazing when we realize that everything can be different only with a new perspective. Astonishing talk !!

This talk is so comforting because I feel like I have been aimlessly wandering through life. It's nice to know that something good can come out of not being able to settle down to just one specific thing right now.

Very true. I specialized early and got my PhD at age 27. Then I quit that field altogether and became a nurse.

Thank you very much for uploading this inspirational video. I'm planning to pursue my education again after taking a degree that my parents forced me into and landing in a job that I didn't enjoy at all. I'll continue my education two years later as I still need to settle many of my parents' problems. Better late than never.

With a billion perspectives of the world, this one surely zooms out on a lot we don't know but could learn. Thank you for this engaging and curiosity building talk.

Wow. This is such a great TED talk. I feel like sometimes society makes me think that the only way to succeed is to hyper specialize in one area in order to get good and look good to employers. I guess this may not be the only way/best way to think about how to educate a person.

Really well thought out, researched and well presented talk. One of he best I've seen. Kudos

Thank you so much for this one. I've been feeling like the one left behind. 4 years into college and I still don't know what I want to do and still no where close to a graduation. But I'm still hopeful!

This is so relieving to hear. It brings back some memories, actually. I was put in this group of "great thinkers" back in elementary school and everyone seemed to all have a niche that they mainly specialized in, whether it be math, coding, or design. They were praised all the time and I would just sit there and overhear things that I had no idea about -- the specifics of coding procedures and all that. I felt like I was an imposter amid all these great people who were already so talented at a targeted subject. I had spent most of my childhood reading a wide variety of books and I was decent at writing, but not good enough to have been considered a champion at it. I lost interest in math because I was absolutely horrible at it in a group of kids that specialized in it. Fast forward to middle school -- I'd returned to China and was now enrolled in an international school (since my Chinese wasn't good enough to attend a regular bilingual school). Because it was a foreign country, I obviously had an advantage when it came to English (given I spent most of my childhood there), so I ascended the ranks pretty fast in that subject. However, I continued to put no effort into math or science and only focused on the subjects I was particularly good at (history and English). After all, that's what I was told as a child: that specializing in a particular niche would take you further in the long run. Consequently, my GPA lowered with my scores in basically every other class, and I grew increasingly anxious and depressed. High school. I'm currently 16, so I'm still in the middle of it, but I feel as if a lot less pressure is on my shoulders. There is a myriad of super successful people around me -- people who have scored incredibly high on their SATs and PSATs, earned notable awards for their contributions to technology, written and illustrated published books, played in junior NBA league sports, and currently possess high grades. I have found my passion for math once more through a teacher who uses abstract learning models rather than straight ones and reignited my interest in the sciences. I acknowledge the fact that I can't achieve mastery in subjects that I simply can't bring myself to like, and that's okay. I've found that I can adapt to some wild on-the-spot situations and lead a group despite having no previous experience with the topic we're supposed to be researching. I don't have a set goal but I'm driven to do my best whenever I want to. I've had people around me open me up to new experiences I'd never considered trying before, only to find that potential to do well skyrocketing if I really put in the effort to pursue it. My point is: you don't have to do well at all when it comes to any subject. That isn't what determines your success. Your ability to dabble in things and adapt to them is what makes you (arguably) more valuable than any specialized learner. It's better to leave yourself open to a wide range of possibilities rather than solely relying on one curriculum to get you everywhere. You don't even need potential to do well. You just need experience. That's how it goes in the real world, from what I've been told. I'm just a teenager with no specific plans on what to do or what to major in since I'm not beamingly outstanding at any particular subject, but my scattered skills make success just as possible to reach, if not more.

I suppose that the real definition of an intellectual is when someone has the urges to master every new fields of discipline out of his/her specialization. Let's say a doctor, we might say that doctors are intellect because of the knowledge on what they're doing, but no, thats what they professional demands. But when a doctor mastering a new discipline like economy, philosophy, law, etc. and thats my friend is an intellectual.

Thank you for sharing this. All my life so far, although I'm still young and in high school, I've never really stuck to one thing. I kept doing things all over the place. I had a bunch of different short-term hobbies. And now there's a lot of talk about universities and careers coming up, and I always felt like I was behind everyone because I wasn't able to say what I want to do in the future nor what I want to study in university. This always stressed me out, I would talk to my parents about it and that didn't help either. I'm very glad I found videos like these, as they give me hope that I don't need to know exactly what I want to do, and I can keep dabbling around in a bunch of different areas.

Best TEDtalk I've ever seen. Very much underrated.

I have been thinking the other way about this for a long time. Thanks for making me consider a new perspective!

But this video made me feel a little more confident about the future :)

Reminds me of "rich dad poor dad" in a way. And yet, here I am, about to finish my masters before starting my PhD next year. And while a part of me really likes this path (and I think during your time as a PhD student you learn much more than what you are working on, many many soft skills etc) another part of me doesn't know whether that's a good idea and whether I am not missing out on something

One of the best TedTalks ever. Not an easy title to earn.

This might have been the most important TED talk for me to watch.

Informative speech

This video was much needed.

A well spoken orator is magnetic.

I just find this video! 😊 I ever questioned myself of this idea because of the society's ideal planning

Glad to be convinced that I'm on the right track.

I spent almost 20 years as a mechanic. Many certificates, much knowledge. My last job title was engineer but now I am a preschool teacher and am making half as much being twice as happy! As I pursue my career in early childhood development I feel as if it's all common knowledge so far. Really does seem to make things easier even know the knowledge gained seems irrelavant.

I'm curious how you feel your acquired life experience has affected how you approach your new teaching career.
