It's very easy to get used to dealing with a very finite set of subjects during the course of your day. You can end up knowing everything about a few things and very little about others.
Take some time to broaden your scope - even if you only spend a few minutes surfing on a subject that's tangential to what you do, but interesting enough that you continue to look for more information on it. That might even lead to widening your scope farther.
It also helps to remind us that no, we don't Know Everything. And that can keep you out of Competency Level 4, which will make working with people who don't know about your particular area of expertise easier.
