Are Generalists Better Than Specialists?
This is another video where I'll discuss the old-fashioned battle about whether you should become a specialist or not. I've done so many videos about that topic that it is totally recommended that you check my playlist on "Specialization And Niching Down".
So, in this video, I received a very interesting question. A reader from the blog asked me why I've contradicted myself in this topic. he said that I said, in some old video of mine, that you should be a generalist. Wait, what? How could that be possible?
If you watch my channel, you've probably heard me talking about how important I think it is for someone to become a specialist, instead of a generalist. But... Did I really say that? Are generalists really better than specialists?
Watch this video and find out!

Should I Learn Multiple Disciplines?
Learning is something I believe every software developer should master. I've already talked several times about the importance of learning and how it can help you build a solid career and cope with all the rapid pace that technology changes nowadays.
So, the question today is about learning multiple disciplines. Should you do it?
I've talked a lot about specialization and niching down and how this is important for developers, especially for establishing yourself in your field.
So, how should you do it? Should you even do it? Is it a smart choice?

There is a very famous quote by Benjamin Franklin that states:
"There are two ways of being happy: We may either diminish our wants or augment our means- either will do- the result in the same; and it is for each man to decide for himself, and do that which happens to be the easiest. If you are idle or sick or poor, however hard it may be to diminish your wants, it will be harder to augment your means. If you are active and prosperous or young and in good health, it may be easier for you to augment your means than to diminish your wants. But if you are wise, you will do both at the same time, young or old, rich or poor, sick or well; and if you are very wise you will do both in such a way as to augment the general happiness of society."
There, we can get a very important life lesson, especially when it comes fo financial freedom and financial worry.
Watch this video and discover how you could possibly end your financial worries and overcome the scarcity mentality.

How Do You Know If You're On The Right Path?
Sometimes we tend to feel completely lost in our lives. We feel stuck, we don't know which path we should follow and it can cause an extreme feeling of hopelessness and anxiety.
I receive a lot of emails from people asking me "John, how do I know if I'm on the right path?". Whether this is such a difficult question to answer, I decided to do a video about this.
In this video, I talk about some things you can do to evaluate if you're on the right track of your life. While this is not 100% guaranteed (and this is good), I think it can benefit a lot of people.

Don't Go Through HR When Looking For A Job
Most people do crazy things when looking for a job. And what I mean by crazy things is doing stuff that won't benefit them in any way, but only will make things more difficult.
Getting hired can be very difficult, especially with the market being more and more crowded and it is nowadays. Each passing day, people start looking desperately for a job. The bad thing (for them) and the good thing (for you) is that they end up doing the same old thing over and over again.
They end up going through the traditional road and end up falling into the HR trap, which I believe everybody knows how it works. In this video I'll tell you why you shouldn't be looking to get hired and going through HR if you're looking for a really good position at a company.

Patreon Call Recording - January 2017
So, as you might know, I have a Patreon campaign that I've created to support SP channel. Supporters are able to get a lot of rewards, get access to private groups and a lot of other stuff.
One of these prizes includes a monthly recording call with me, along with some other cool stuff.
Although this is purely Patreon stuff and only they can access this type of thing, I decided to record and release this call for the public.
This is the recording for January 2017, which we talked about a lot of career stuff, lifestyle and other cool (and important) stuff.
If you'd like, you can support Patreon too.

Why Do You Work So Hard If You're Rich?
John, why do you work so hard if you're rich? Today I have received a very interesting question. A viewer asked me why I still work so hard if I'm rich. He also says that he wants to get at that level where he can stop working and just "enjoy life".
Well, I've kind of already discussed this on previous videos I did, but I thought I could do another one. Well, the thing is: My mindset tells me to always improve.
For a long time, I've tried to think that things would come to an end. I've waited a long time for things to end. For example, I waited a long time for me to retire, thinking that nothing would come after. However, this is not the type of mindset you should have.
Watch this video and discover why I still work hard and why you should do it too. Forget waiting for things to come to an end.
