Study Lightens The Future; Experience Adds Values To The Life

When a man was given birth and starts getting the sunlight, he can firstly survive with what, almost nothing at all, is belonged to him only. In essence, talent could be considered as the most valuable belonging which a man has carried over since his first day on earth and which could be also represented as a tool determining his destiny whether he will be living in a bad or good condition of life. For instance, when a 16-year-old boy was born and was unluckily growing in a disadvantageous condition of life, his basic and affordable demand is food and clothes. To achieve what he requires to survive daily, he needs to employ his god-gift skill for example in this case selling flower to earn money for his daily expenses. Having flowers sold could be considered as his main talent since he needs to use his interpersonal selling skill to convince customers to accept his offer anyways. If it is supposed that another man who does not possess that kind of selling personality, it is hardly for him to get sales otherwise he would be talented in doing something else.

It is believed that talent only could not help a man to overcome his rough life because he would be constantly facing challenges, difficulties or even obstacles to accomplish thing. That is why a man needs to fulfill himself with formal or lectures at an institute or elsewhere. Because he needs to discover and understand wisely new things happened around him, study is the efficient way in assisting him applying talent in a right place and at right a time. In general, there are three sources from which a man could absorb new knowledge commonly such as family, school and society.

Family refers to in particular parents, siblings and relatives who normally influence a man physically and mentality while school is an establishment where a formal transfer of knowledge taken place. Interestingly, society, by definition an organization gathering a group of people having same interest or aim, affects notably a man’s understanding and ideas. In brief, knowledge is generated formally or informally from study whilst talent is a man’s legacy from his birth. Study and talent together are main factor determining clearly a man’s fortune. Moreover, with only talent a man could not opt a way ahead in order to live happily. Thus talent and study bonded together helps a man to plan for a world billionaire talented in encoded computerization who also needed to attend class to broaden his understanding as well as ideas. He utilized his talent and exercised his basic knowledge to pioneer the information technology era and founded Microsoft Corp, the world leading computer technology company which is considered as his pool of wealth. Besides, a man possessed leadership talent has intention to become a politician and starts building up his skill in the law courses, he can become a politician as his dream to be or even can plan to become a president in his country.

Study produces theoretical concept and without implementation, it means nothing. The use of knowledge creates, on the other hand, experiences. For example, a man was born in a good condition family and at the meantime he has learn a lot good of things from his. Thus, he experienced good from his parents and relatives. However, if he selects a low quality institute to acquaintance his basic knowledge, finally he would be unlucky to obtain a good career. The man experiences badly from his wrong choice of school and this will be an alarm alerting him in reiterating his choice of new academic institution.

In conclusion, to get good life and good future is required basically talent, study and experiences are lasted eternally around a man’s living. Therefore talent plus knowledge and experiences lead a man to possess a critical thinking.
