RANGE by David Epstein | Core Message 

Never settle too quickly. It happens in both romance and work.

“If we treated careers more like dating, nobody would settle down so quickly.” ― David Epstein, Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World

This is really encouraging for someone who started university this year at the age of 27 (myself lol). Thanks! 🙏

Its almost like you could use Epsteins Range book to understand different sectors in your fields of interest, and then apply Robert Greene's Mastery book on the one area you really want to explore deeply.

I was an intern in a production house. My first job was in a design and printing company, then I moved to a photography studio then went and started my advertising agency which introduced me to many problem solving scenarios. Now I run a e commerce retail line, all the knowledge I gathered along the way fused into one. A regular start up would need to hire atleast 4 people to do what I do naturaly.

This book made me feel a lot better about the fact I’ve had 5 careers and I’m only 34. When I thought it was a negative

As someone who went from being a mechanic in the Navy to working in the hospital as a CNA and now studying CS at college, this is very refreshing to hear.

Your videos are inspirational and insightful! Thank you for all your hard work!

I am a person with lots of diff interest and always wanted to try them out. This is encouraging.

great video, thanks. I think there's a combination of ideas here that need to be incorporated for over success... 1. Knowing/learning your 'Why/Purpose', because this is hard-wired in from birth, 2. Getting the experiences as David suggests here to help build that understanding of who and why you are and 3. A quote from Felix Dennis - 'Treat every job like an apprenticeship' that way we don't get stuck, become apathetic or complacent in our work... ...then build, build, build every experience to create that 'thing' you're designed for that creates huge impact.

Thank you soo much for this video. As a 19 year old expecting too much from me .Experimenting and experiencing is way more important.❤️

Thank you man...I like the clarity and simplicity in your presentation...found value 👍

THANK YOU !! Great summary

Experimenting with diverse options beforehand, broadens your experiential and physical capabilities opening you up to a detailed perspective that, in turn, enables you (in a way), to not only make the best selection possible, but also furthering it and improving it to the best of your ability.

Thank you brother I thought...it's really resonates with me 😊

There are 3 elements to success. 1. Find something you are passionate about, 2. You are good at, 3. You have full commitment to. Marry those 3 together and go as deep as you can. However, to get those 3, you will likely have to try many different things especially early on to find those 3. That is what is said in message. Try different things, eventually you will narrow it down based on generalised experiences to those 3 and then stick to those 3 once you are sure. This is how to get success.

I love your channel man

Thanks a ton.

This is inspiring. I'm really motivated now. Thank you.

great summery. thanks

In life you want to focus on skill acquisition from a diverse range of fields. Be driven and determined however slightly eccentric in nature and make counter-intuitive choices that force you to learn a variety of opposing skills. It will feel glunky and wont necessarily be a linear progression. Ultimately, the goal is to find yourself in situations where you can face a completely new, unseen, abstract problem and apply critical analysis and thought that you have learnt from a range of fields. Be fluid and nimble. Be a contrarian. I am 26 years old and have spent the last five years as an Intensive Care Registered Nurse in a major metropolitan trauma center. This year my partner and I gave it all away and left the big smoke of the city to come work on a remote sheep station in isolated Western Australia. Now im on a motorbike with a few other boys chasing sheep and goats while my boss is in a helicopter above us giving direction. Haven't looked back, its been bloody unreal!

Could you please make a video on how rich people think and how money works by Steve Siebold

Interesting summary - definitely reassuring and motivating. Would be great to see more women in your illustrations though :) in this video there was 90%+ males.

Two things I noticed in my time: -"marks" Everything you do/did leaves marks and slightly changes everything about you -"general potential" Everyone can do everything. There is no such thing as born talent.

I am reading this book currently. I am in chapter 5 now but i dont have any clue what the rest chapters taught me. Only the 1st chapter i did understand.

The philosophy of kind and wicked learning environments is left out in this book. And that´s the most important part of the book :)

I feel like there's something missing in the metal rod + concrete example lol I mean wth how???

I know the details of how the motor stopped the concrete from drying too quickly isn't the main point of the book review, but my not understanding it because it was not explained specifically, was such a distraction that I had to pause the video to google it, and i still can't find how this machine slows the curing of concrete. My advice is to have people proofread the vids prior to publishing. Sorry, my engineer brain at work. Just constructive criticism, I am very glad you make these vids and please continue.

Would you do your job if you were not paid?

How do you read books this fast, it takes atleast 1 month to complete an average book for me

👐🏼

Here's something for multipotentialites to celebrate about 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊

🙏🙏🙏❤️

my life

Basically too late for me. But uh.. thx. Good video

Pair this book and The Dip by Seth Godin and you‘ll be guided to the “right” path ure meant to be

This book literally ignores the social conditions of possibility that make certain people have generalist success conditions (social origin) that will be capitalized on general benefits in life: "engineers" who grew up going with their parents to "museums" of contemporary art, spending Sundays in which musicians, artists, etc. came over to eat at home, influential friends surrounding the family environment, etc. A whole set of social relationships that have endowed the neophyte with a generic cultural capital, capital that will be activated in a "spontaneous and natural" way in life to obtain sympathies, favors, favoritism, loves and privileges. Read Pierre Bourdieu, "The Distinction".

why does your voice seems accelerated ?

ogi ogi

conan o'brien

Who is here because of Bill Gates?

This encourages job hopping lol

Does it apply to men and marriage? 😜

Ab De Villiers

That idea was worth 20 million not 20k lol

EPSTEIN DIDNT KILL HIMSELF WITHOUT HELP. Kappa

Sounds like a comedian.

Let’s face it: everyone comes here are the losers who are not good in any particular thing.😂

Crap. How can you sample all these diff types a jobs without a degree? No one hires without a degree any more
