Recently, I read a very good article in Times of India whose title is Where is my Nobel Prize?. The author tries to explain why Indians lack to get such prizes though their population is so high. He has analyzed many possible reasons. However, I liked following paragraph the most:
"Talent is rare, and randomly distributed across the human population, irrespective of pedigree, connections or wealth. Some may call talent an unfair gift. However, it is talent that allows ordinary people to come up in life. Otherwise. rich people would stay rich and poor people poor. Thus, this unfair talent actually makes the world fairer"
Many friends gave their views. Here are the views :
Vijay: I think, it is bit complex.To become successful in life people need talent, hard-work, opportunities, etc.While talent is an asset distributed across the human population, opportunities are more open towards the rich.
Deepak:I think talent isn't unfair gift, because everyone got an unique talent, its just matter of recognizing and mastering it to make some productive outcome, so there are two kind of people winners and losers...hope i made some sense :)
Me:
@Vijayalyan: I totally agree with you. I think, that is the reason why 'talent' people of developing countries, even though they are 'industrious', either don't get 'Novel Prize' (coz of few opportunities) or receive once they moved to developed countries.
@Deepak: I don't think only 'trying to master' makes a person talent. For example, one may fail to become a popular singer though he really wants to become so and practices a lot, a lot & a lot, possibly taking courses from experts. Why, then, he can't get success eventhough he works with several 'famous musicians' etc..???
What I think here is that he doesn't have gifts (vocals) i.e. talents and therefore cannot master and produce productive outcomes :).
Bishnu: TALENT: To Achieve in Life with Enough Number of Tries....
Krishna: absolutely true...
Mandip: nobal le sarai thik kura garyo...............
Me: @Bishnu: khai ta mero singer wala example le timro TALENT ko defn lai support gardaina ni...
Surendra: I also believe in the stochastic distribution of talent, but I think that every people has talent. So, if somebody has not a good voice he may not be a successful singer but he may have good painting skill or ...So, Identification of owns skill is important.
Bishnu: Everything is not universal ni ta....tai pani timro singer ko example ma...talent and success are two different things in life...tara if some one practice then it is nothing that he/she cannot get...kun level ma pauney it depends and also kati time ma pauney also depends....tara it does not mean ki u saga talent nai chaina....How we see the world ...
Me: @Surendra: u think that "everybody has" talent but you also think that it has "stochastic distribution"--seems contradiction hehe. I think u mean to say one cannot predict who can identify his skills and who can't. Thus, the talent is random. If so, I agree :)
Surendra:Different people has different talents. its distribution is random irrespective of cast creed, economical status and geographical location. Every one is equally likely to be a successful man. However, commitment, dedication & passion is essential to identify hidden talents
Me: @Bishnu: My assumption is that a talent guy gets at least a success ... You made me talent in singing coz I can sing better compared to sb hehe... thnx :)
