Expertise... because I'll want something to read later after moving house all day.

What do you consider yourself an expert at? Why?

Studies show that most world-class experts in any field have spent at least 10000 hours working on the related skills. No, I don't have a citation to hand... What have you spent 10000 hours or more learning or practising? That's 3 hours a day for 10 years.

How much overlap is there between these categories?

Do you consider yourself a specialist or a generalist? Why?

Is expertise absolute or relative?

By that measure, I'm an expert in patrolling. My experience is spread over police, Army, and private security patrols, but I've got more than the 10,000 hours just with the police.

Fat lot of good it's doing me as a farmer. :)
