Focus on what you know. People cannot know what you know or where you are going, that is, your future. They compare yours either to themselves or to others. Don’t get caught up in that.
Unusualness happens outside the usual.

If you constantly move forward with things you don’t know, you continually start from scratch. On the other hand, if you move forward with things you know, then you build on that and move up.
Let’s say you are at level 5 with your PHP knowledge. NextJS is new to you. Then your level becomes 0 instead of 5. You spend time, energy, money, and health to get back to level 5.
On the other hand, if you had done the same thing with your PHP knowledge, in the big picture, someone would be at level 10 in one corner and level 5 in the other. If you suddenly enter the real estate field, you won’t start at level 11; you’ll start from scratch again. If you then enter the dropshipping field, you’ll start from scratch again. You don’t build on top of it.
When someone in the PHP field, or whatever field it is, reaches level 100, you’ll still be at level 5. And you’ll envy them and go back to PHP.
No!
Focus on what you know! Now you know what you know. Things you don’t know will take your time, energy, money, and health!
