Being excellent at one thing is what our society ask as a requirement of success. Some people might disagree with this and insists that people should build basic knowledge in as many field as possible to build their abilities. This might work in the past; on the other hand, nowadays, all companies and constitutions are looking for people being specialized in a specific area. For those living in fast-paced world, to learn about a myriad of things even they are not interested in is a real waste of time and resources.
During recent years, people are prone to work for only one thing. That is, they think of their majors in their high school years finding their potential and true ability. After that, they choose a college and major that exactly fit their interests. For those, this society open the door of being successful. Finding what people are truly excellent at one specific thing is advantageous after all especially doing in their early ages. Consequently, they are more likely to get more opportunities to work in a company with a great deal and people in this world are praised who has a unique ability to differentiate with others. This is a key of success. Many historical figures and modern billionaires have proved the significant power of being professional throughout human history. For one, Einstein, one of the greatest scientists in the world, didn't get the formal school learning which means that he didn't have an opportunity to build well-rounded learning unlke other people. Even though he was expelled from primary school in his early ages, there is a one thing that capture his interest: the world of science. Conducting a number of experiment, doing many researches, and making his own conclusion he could become the one that change the world significantly. His theories are still used for modern scientiests and his influential power is still enormous in every field of science till now. What did make him to be a such a worldwide, powerful figure? For his great success, he didn't need any backgrounds related to other field but only scientific knowledge he required. To concentrate on only one area is a way to go if s/he wants to be achieve a genuine success and hold a power that might change the world.
Working for many areas for being excellent at numerous things is a waste of resources. It is actually impossible to do so. Being good at a bunch of fields sounds great for people as a genius, however, once thinking throughly, it is not practical at all. In this highly-competitive world, being an expert at only one thing is enough harsh for people. There are a number of competitors that people may not expect but anyhow meet in their near future. In this respect, it is impractical to even give a shot to try to be a profession on every fields by building a wide range of knowledge. Furthermore, each people has different abilities. For them, it is desirable to find their own skills as soon as possible and work only for one thing for horning their special abilities. In that way, they can save their time and money greatly than anybody else and this results in making further steps for success. To illustrate, most parents expect their children to be perfect in various kinds of field, so they force their child to participate in many activities, such as learning foreign languages, art, music and speech and so on. However if all the things do not catch children's interest at all, it can be said as a waste. Then one day, parents may figure out that all things they've poured for their sons are no use. For who in their beginning of twenties, enrolling a college, they learn about their majors with more details trying hard to their fullest. With their passion and endeavors, it is enough to be a expert in one subject snd this leads them to get on a path of success with higher probabilities as well as save their invaluable things, such as money, time, and talents.
People have to face a reality. Even if he is really poor at one thing, he doesn't have to be frustrated if he has a ability in one thing that makes him special. Being a profession in an one area! That is what society and this world expect people to survive this tough world. It could be marvelous to be the one that excellent in all kinds of fields and know everything, but practically, it is not supportable as human beings have a limitation in their brains. There is only a little part of brain of that they can use and all has a certain potential. In this sense, specializing one thing is enough to be the one who is remarkable. By putting all effort to only one area, there is a higher possibility of success, at the same time, they do not have to make their given sources useless. To win the number of competition among their rivals and be the one famed widely, it is preferable to study and use their time on specific subject in the long run. |
