Have you all ever heard of this saying,"Jack of all trade but master of none?"

I have always felt I am like that. I simply excel in nothing. I try to learn new things everytime, I can say that I am pretty adventurous btu I can find nothing that I am really good at, even things that I am really passionate about.

Some of you know I am trying to make a video right now. I am beginning to doubt if I can really do it. I have high expectations of myself and if it is not good, I will be really frank to myself. People said I am too critical. And I tend to compare myself to others too much as well...and sumtimes I am too ambitious. And I dream too much at times.

Does anyone else know what I am talking abt?

hi, I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none. in other words, I'm a bard. I can fight, I can cast magic, I can hide in shadows and backstab. but I cant fight as well as a fighter, I cant cast magic as well as a wizard, and I cant backstab as well as an assasin.

so sux Sad

if u wanna make a video, then do so lor, why doubt this doubt that. just do your best can already what. if u have done your best and made a video, and it might not be super good or something, at least you have made an accomplishment lorz. just dont be 3 minutes passion or wadever.

and also, if you totally sux at making videos, then its a different story Laughing

I will try my best but sumtimes I doubt my ability ma..cos I just begin and I am trying to do something quite ambitious..

Making a video isn't difficult. I didn't really use Adobe Premiere much. I used Ulead MediaStudio extensively in the past. Mr. Green

Specialisation is overrated. Anyway, you will find that the most interesting person are the ones that still don't know what they want to do in life at 40.

I wish u luck wiv ur current pet project.

icyprincess SG

as long as you can feel happy abt yourself then can liao lor...

I am constantly restless becos the people around me excel too much I guess so I feel pressured to prove that I can do something as well to them...

is this wrong thinking?? I just want to achieve excellence in sth, dats all.
