Building happening |... • 4d
They say “Don’t step on every stone — you’ll slip eventually.” We’re told to specialize early, master one thing, and stick to our lane. But here’s the other side of that story — being a jack of all trades can be a superpower, especially in the early days of building something from scratch. It’s not about trying to do everything perfectly. It’s about having just enough skill to take action without waiting for someone else. Need a landing page? You figure it out. Need a quick edit, a pitch deck, a user survey, a growth plan? You roll up your sleeves. Being a generalist gives you momentum. It teaches you how all the moving parts of a product, brand, or business actually connect. And honestly, in this world of fast-moving startups and growth, adaptability often beats mastery. Would love to hear from others building from scratch — Has being a generalist helped you too? Or has specialization been your edge? #startups #founderjourney #jackofalltrades #buildinginpublic #earlystagefounder
