Is it better to specialize in a single field I like, or expand into other fields to broaden my horizons?

Recently, I don’t know from where I got a thought in my mind that, “is knowing .NET development environment enough for a successful career in IT industry”. Should I be learning more languages too or will .NET suffice me for next 10-15 years.

By successful career I mean earning decent living and having good growth opportunities.
