Whatever you do and think is instrumental in making your future.

But the surroundings around you are making you an average generalist.

When you go to your school or college, you study in the same classroom, with the same teachers, same books, and same environment, and answer the same set of questions in the same examination hall.

And who comes first in the classroom are those who are different in approaches and are having specialized subject knowledge.

Your specialized subject knowledge works in your favour of you.

Then a company comes for campus placement in your institution and interviews you to judge how different and special you are.

Again your specialization comes to highlight you.

Once you are selected and join the organization, you get the same office environment, training, job profile, and bosses.

When the reward time comes and your performances are evaluated, again you are judged by the quality of your results, which gets better and better with your mastery and specialization.

Your specialization gives you significance in life.

Your career is your choice of life, your way of growing and grooming. 

Your career gives you deep and extensive knowledge in your area of choice.

Your career makes you expert and specialized.

On the other hand, your job is your professional engagement in any department. A more general approach to life.

The higher the position you want to achieve, the more specific you have to become.
