The article presents the argument for the power of combining multiple average skills to achieve a level of expertise and uniqueness. It sifts the focus from the pressure of becoming best at everything to developing a collection of multiple skills.​

The article is very optimistic. It encourages to embrace growth mindset and to appriciate your already existing skills, and to combine the skills when needed to create your own kind of collection of skills rather than focusing on being the best at one thing, there may be a lot of people who can bake, less people who can bake and paint, but a person who can bake, paint, sing, skii and run a marathon is very unique, the article has a very rare and positive perspective about skills, usually people think that you are special when you are best at something and that you have to be the best to be good. The article is very eye opening and it has a unique perspective that I have never thought about before​

Skill stacking is very useful and important as a set builder. We have to use so many materials and equipment we cannot master everything perfectly, it is much more important to be able to work with many different things than to be perfect in one of them, we have to be able to weld, sew, paint, do woodwork, use wood, metal, polyurethan, fabric ect. And much more. If I was perfect at welding, but that would be the only thing I am good at, I would be useless at my job. Of course it would be amazing to master everything perfectly, but it is utopian thought that probably no one can achieve, even if we are making a single project, only a one product, we usually have to make it with a lot of different materials, equipment and techniques. To achieve the perfect product. For example, we made a tree decoration for the school and we used concrete, plastic, empty bottles, wire mesh, old pottery like plates and mugs, metal, wood, wire, rebar and more. We had to build the support structures, shape the rebar, weld it, shape the concrete, paint the tree, shape the bottles and plastic to make the leaves, paint the leaves, make mosaic to the sides, and much more. We had to do a ton of different things to make a single product. We have to be able to do a lot of things. If I was the world’s best welder but could not do anything of the other techniques, I would have not been able to make the tree, if I was the best at welding it would not be enough if I could not do anything else. That’s why it is important as a set builder to be able to do a lot of things and to combine the things u can already do, to do other new things.​

As a set builder I am average at most of the things we have done  shaping, welding, woodwork, painting, and I am also pretty good at planning and calculating and I can improvise and combine my already average skills to achieve the needed result I am also pretty good at problem solving which is good as a set builder​

Whatever you do, it doesn’t matter how good you are there is always a child in china that is way better than you.
