Choosing Maya As Your Primary or Only App
I am so conflicted, wanting MoGraph-style effects, but wanting to only use Maya. I know C4D to a lesser degree, but am a bit stretched and feel that focusing on one will benefit my learning.

If you feel like you're stretching yourself too thin, you probably are. Burnout is not fun.

It's like I feel that there are two mountains -- Maya and other software. I can remain near the bottom by trying to climb both mountains, or I can get further climbing one.
It's a risk as the other may benefit me, but it's not my primary job responsibility nor my passion. I feel that others with a passion in C4D will out-perform me anyway. So I'll continue being familiar with it, but knowing that Maya can also do what C4D can (through different methods) is great knowledge.
