The picture comes from the internet.
On the surface, it simply means that a person with hundreds of skills can't make himself rich, but he will be poorer. This sentence seems to be contrary to common sense, but it is actually very meaningful. Imagine that if a person has many talents, he will hesitate to choose his own career. I am a good painter, but I am also interested in cooking. I can be a chef, but I'm good at writing, and I can be a writer ... Even if I finally choose an industry, I will encounter some minor setbacks here, and the idea of "whether it will be better if I do another industry" is indecisive and half-hearted. I'm afraid it's hard for such people to achieve anything.
Mastering a skill is not an easy task. Many people seem to know everything. Whatever you ask, he can explain it to you. In fact, they only know the skin, but they are not proficient. We don't do our work to sort it out, not to see who has more skills, but to see the depth of proficiency in a certain aspect. It's like everyone is playing games now, but most people can only be called internet addiction teenagers, and only those real e-sports experts can participate in international competitions. Moreover, it takes a lot of time for a person to learn a skill, and a lot of time is spent pursuing the diversity of skills. In the end, he will do it line by line, but he knows a little about everything, just scratching the surface. Don't you think those praised craftsmen have been doing the same thing all their lives?
If the artist Jackie Chan asks you to draw what you want on a piece of paper, but a piece of paper is white, but a piece of paper has been used, and you have drawn something, I believe everyone will want that piece of white paper, and the "artist" is that piece of white paper. How will their predecessors teach them to draw their own lives on such a blank sheet of paper? Those "unskilled" people don't know anything when they first start to understand an industry, precisely because they don't know much about other things and don't have so much curiosity. They only know how to work hard on one thing, continue to specialize, and do one thing to the extreme, thus becoming the "dragon among people" of the whole industry.
But this sentence doesn't mean that if you know a lot but don't master it, you won't achieve anything. For example, when it comes to a certain ability, the ancient emperor may not be as good as other ministers, but the emperor can put all the capable people in the world under his command and let the ministers rule the world, and he needs to control the ministers himself. But how many people in this world are born to lead others? Only when you have made certain achievements in a certain line can you become a leader and have the confidence to lead others. Therefore, the essence of this sentence is to warn us: to do anything, we must calm down and learn a thing or a skill with peace of mind, not half-hearted, but practical.
