★ Agree or disagree that "Some people do so many different things, so that they do only few things well." ★
신랄한 평가 부탁드립니다. |
In the modern world, many people are required to do many things well by a society. Some people say that people cannot do all things well. However, I believe that people can do many different things well because of their passion and because many of the skills people have find are transferable.
To begin with, many things over various fields have a chance to interact mutually. We all know that over time many different fields have overlapped. Subjects and fields can be separated and sepcialized as well as integrated and compliment each other. Naturally, people can find common points if they make an effort to study. Through using these common points, people can be expert in various subjects at time. For instance, differential equations are used to solve problems in dynamic mechanics. However, if people apprehend about differential equations, they can also easily learn about various others, such as the theory of circuit, the engineering vibration, and, of course, the numerical method. Furthermore, differential equations are one of the methods to analyze economic phenomenons. In terms of this example, I think if people understand what knowledge is shared in many fields, they can do well in various things.
On top of that, people can do a lot of things well if they have firm mind and like various things. Almost all successful people like their major field and say that the strong attachment about their major is one of the important factors for success. Hence, the affection is regarded as a requisition to be good at something. For example, even though Einstein is known as the biggest scientist, he greatly liked about playing a violin and humor. Both parts weren’t his major, but these abilities were also approved by people around. His humorous and music ability were affected by his strongly liking. In this sense, I think somebody, whose affection is spread on various things, can do many things well.
Finally, human’s talents are unlimited. People's abilities would be multiple if they use their ability well. Due to “Although Einstein is one of the best using one's brain cells, he just used 5% of his brain." , people can feel about the limit of talent. Sometimes people recognize infinite possibilities through huge ancestors. For instance, Leonardo de Vinci outstood in various field, such as art, science, engineering, philosophy. He learned art at first, and he broadened his knowledge. He didn't hesitate to acquire more knowledge. His works and masterpieces make modern people think whether these were born by only one. In this aspect, I think if people have enough will and motivation to reveal their possibilities, they can be good at various things. |
