Narrowly hone one’s expertise in a very specific area in which they have notable talent in to become one of the best in that area/market.

The Creative

Bridge Blueprint

Description:
Gain exposure to a wide variety of areas and subjects. Requires conscious effort to not focus too much on any particular subject area and to relinquish the financial security of specialization (i.e., artist, creative writer, etc.).
