Word every Gracious Individual should know: Tausendsassa
Definition: Tausendsassa (pronounced 'tou-zend-sa-sa); German; noun
1. A jack-of-all-trades; a multi-talented person.
Why I love this word:
There are strong arguments whether being a jack-of-all-trades is a good or bad attribute. And personally I think it depends on the field that you are in. Medically speaking, I'd prefer to go to a specialist. However, for creatives, I think this stigma is a bit different. You can choose to be known for only one craft, that's okay. You can choose to be only known for your paintings, or your photography, or your writings. Or you can be known for a little more. You can be great at both writing and photography, at art and design, at performance and technical. You can.
