In Range by David Epstein, the argument is clear: in today's unpredictable world, those with broader experiences—generalists—can be more successful than specialists. This resonates with me, as I had to rebuild my life after prison, trying new things and developing new skills. Epstein contrasts athletes like Tiger Woods and Roger Federer, showing how diverse experiences lead to success. This book reinforces the importance of adapting, embracing failure, and avoiding a singular focus for anyone dealing with a white-collar crime investigation. There's dignity in trying, failing, and ultimately thriving by applying past skills in new ways.
