Perhaps my memory capacity is way above normal then. I am one of those people who suddenly decides to dig into something, and then I push until I get brain-fry. Then after that subsides, I move around a lot. I am not a specialist. I have naturally specialised in areas that uprank this generalist ability, such as network technology and computers, where the capacity to network large complex disparate fields together is an advantage. I don't really have a method other than 'follow my bliss'.

But for people who have less exceptional learning ability, this systemisation is very important. In the end though, success is 9 parts talent and 1 part of effort. My efforts are very diverse, and I am sure that eventually it will qualify me for roles that nobody would have guessed existed. Having a broad, high level understanding that applies directly and can be used in various unexpected situations, makes you a leader. Not the political type, the visionary type.
