In reply to Fran. Learning is my favorite thing and I'm glad to always be able to learn something new everyday.

If that’s the definition of expert, I hope to never be an expert. I LOVE learning and I don’t think I could ever stop haha

In reply to Sarah. Thanks Sarah for stopping by! I think it has a lot to do with the way the term is perceived in our industry and how it's used very loosely. It's definitely not my favorite word but I can see why others are drawn to it, especially when creating titles for themselves. It creates a type of authority and verifies knowledge in a certain area which is admirable. I just like to think of myself as more of a novice with and advanced knowledge in certain skillsets. :) Thank you for stopping by.

I think the first point on the definition of expert is interesting – I don’t see ‘expert’ as meaning ‘the best of the best and totally infallible’. No matter what you do, there is still something new to learn, there is still something you can improve on – and this definitely applies to the ‘experts’.

Another fantastic and valuable round of tips!
I’m in love with Carl Smith’s explanation on why he rather not be an “expert”. Inspiring and true.
