“Life’s barely long enough to get good at one thing So be careful what you get good at.”
— Matthew McConaughey

Simplified Meaning:
We don't have endless time in our lives to master a lot of different skills. Because our time is limited, it's important to choose wisely what we dedicate ourselves to. For instance, if you decide to spend all your time getting really good at playing the guitar, you might not have enough time to become a great chef or an expert in another area. It's like when someone chooses a career—they need to think carefully because it will take years of their life to become really skilled at it. Make sure the thing you choose to get good at is something you're truly passionate about and that will bring you happiness in the long run. Otherwise, you might spend a lot of time and effort on something that doesn't actually make you feel fulfilled.
