About the Original Book:
David Epstein challenges the well-known concept that in order to perform at the highest level, you must find your niche at an early age and train for hours. While it is true that some of the best athletes and musicians began learning their craft at an early age, for example, Tiger Woods, the majority of these great individuals were actually generalists. They started out in one field, dabbled in a bunch of others, and finally settled on their true calling. Epstein states that people shouldn’t be afraid of becoming generalists because the exposure will make them better abstract thinkers than narrow-minded specialists.
