JACK OF ALL TRADE means no one can say you are not a know-how's on an affair.
But it will cause you slow growth in every facet of life. You know why, because you need sit, think, develope each trade action before doing them. And these cause slowness and other unfortunasy. And see, doing this things does not always means money they are many time free. And for these people God knew everything about His positive building of their life from beginning to finish. So put your hope on Him, you who are called TRADE JACKS because they will lead you into greatness tomorrow. You cannot be outdone by the hands of `Perriscribe'- the knower of many things. Faith is needed.

"Jack of all trades, master of all". It is simply called- MULTI-TASKING. The human brain is capable of that.

Does "jack of all trades" necessarily mean master of none?
not true, it just means that yhuve got too many options and its takes a while to pick which to stick with, the worlds greatest minds are usually complex people, if yhu look properly there is connection between ever endeavour they participate in buh they are usually known for just one.

Einstein was a mathematician,a physicist, a philosopher , an electrician and a thermo-engineer "thanks to his father and uncle, who owned a power plant that supplied electricity for the whole ".buh his just known as a physicist.


great minds usually have no intellectual stop sign , its all about interest, what is important/needed at a particular moment.

DA Vinci was an artist, an inventor ,a mathematician da list goes on, his mainly known as an artist thanks to mona lisa

Jack of all trades and master of none is way ahead of master of one if he can get things done in any area. Not necessarily masterfully but the job gets done.
Being a jack of all trades is what we are created to be. We have an unlimited God who created us in his image. We are meant to be able to do many things well.
Thats why we have so many courses under one department in the university. Cos we have that ability

It is good to know many trades in this kind economy,imagine a bricklayer who didnt get mason job,all pple want is tiling or plumbing job,he will continue to go hungry.

No it doesn't, but it pays to be a master in one area before thinking of going to other fields.
Be an expert in a field first rather than learning the basics of every field and have nothing to show for it.

I used to think. Like dat, not anymore, I think it's more about ur temperament, let's go back a bit; those skills that you are good in, and possibilities seem endless, how well have you mastered them? Maybe not to you best. Capacity, but you sure have requisite knowledge enough to beat. Your chest. This is because your temperament allows you feel satisfied to quickly, this is because you easily loose interests inn activities quickly an once you do, you find those activities boring. But you still feel fulfilled with. The one you know, are you are ready to try something new, or dare another adventure.

Try to check up tests for temperament online, there are a lot n free. You can try up to 3 sites to be convinced of answers, Heinekan has one, like an interview and you answer before getting details.

Try to discover yourself more. Just pick a skill that flows with your passions and aspirations, you will excel well. The idea of everything been so easy as really is might have a negative effect on your ability to perform under pressure.
