I'm working on being the drunken bard at the table
I'm one of those people who lives up to the "Jack of all trades, master of none" colloquialism.
In some respects, it is pretty great. It makes me fairly useful in many situations, and I'm able to pick up new things at a quicker-than-average rate. I've had quite the eclectic, though not always interesting, array of jobs in the past and it works well for me because I love to soak up information and experience. It also keeps me from getting too bored. So why would this be at all a bad thing?
I have some very strong skills in some fields, but in no way am I a "master" of anything. That, combined with a lingering low self-esteem, is keeping me from advancing any further in anything.
Basically, I don't know what to do with myself. It is keeping me up at night at times.
I need to find something that I can be good at, but will for the most part be able to leave it at work when I am done.
