Every parent wants their child to be talented. And in fact, each of us has his own, not inherent in anyone else, talent. Some may say that many sing, what is the difference? But everyone’s voice is individual, for someone it’s easier to take a high note, and for another person it’s an impossible task. What is the difference between talented people, and how is this or that ability given to us? Let's try to find the answer to this question.
Where do abilities come from?
Many abilities in life can be developed through long training and practice, for example, the skill of speed reading or speaking in front of an audience. But the same cannot be said about the voice and dances. Agree, if a person is not able to sing, not one of the best teachers can teach him to sing so that everyone gets goosebumps. How to understand where abilities and talents come from?
The answer to this question must be sought in the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. Since inclinations have an impact on abilities. Makings are a type of nerve cells that form strong connections that affect a person's abilities. At the same time, in the cortexdifferent parts of the brain are involved, so if neurons (nerve cells) form a connection in the left hemisphere of the brain, then the child is quite likely to become a great mathematician or programmer, because the left side of the brain is responsible for logic. So, inclinations are our potential abilities, which were formed at the embryonic stage of development.
Same makings for different people
The makings of a person can manifest themselves in different ways. If two different people have the same inclinations, they will not manifest themselves in the same way. One person can develop absolute pitch, while another with the same inclinations will also have the ability to memorize notes in addition to hearing. Abilities have 3 levels of development, by which you can understand how the inclinations and abilities of a person interact.
Several degrees of ability
- The first degree is a gifted person. This is a person who has a wide range of interests, he can interact with other people through different types of communication (verbal and non-verbal). Giftedness is the first degree of ability, and many children have it at the beginning of their development.
- Second degree - just the same talent. This is a collection of several abilities that are manifested when there are daily activities and training. Therefore, talent can be developed if you are actively engaged every day, but you need to be careful in order to correctly understand the mood of the child whom the parent takes to one or another section. After all, it often happens that parents take their children there,where they failed to realize themselves in due time.
- Third, the highest degree - genius. These are abilities that have been best developed by many scientists, inventors, so now we can listen to the radio and use mobile communications. In this case, the inclinations are talent that was revealed in time, which was directed in the right direction.
How to develop a child's abilities?
As we have already found out, there are many talented people. Someone plays the violin, someone studies languages, someone draws well. But in order for the talent to develop, it is necessary to make an effort. There are several rules that must be followed in order to send the child to the right place.
Take, for example, a five-year-old girl whose mother noticed that her daughter often draws with colored pencils. How to reveal whether it is talent or just drawings, like all children.
- You need to ask your daughter to draw something specific, for example, the simplest - a house in the village and a cat next to it.
- If a child has a lot of colors in the drawing, which are superimposed beautifully and neatly, one can assume a penchant for drawing.
- In this case, you need to ask the girl if she wants to learn to draw even better, it depends on this answer whether you sign up for a drawing studio now or next year, when she is ready.
- When determining abilities, talk to the child, take into account his opinion, communicate with him as with a future genius.
- The choice of teacher and school must be approached verycarefully, because unprofessional teachers can ruin the nascent talent.
- And the last thing, when a child is engaged, develops his talent - be interested in the results and praise him even for small successes. This will help in his development.
So, now it's clear what rules you need to follow in order to correctly recognize talent. And remember that inclinations are the base of a person’s talents and skills, which you need to be able to identify in time.
