"重要的不是你有多聪明,而是你聪明的方式。"
— Howard Gardner
Simplified Meaning:
Your intelligence isn’t about measuring how "smart" you are in traditional ways like tests or grades. What truly matters is understanding the unique ways in which you are smart. Everyone has their strengths; for some, it might be solving math problems quickly, while for others, it could be being great at making friends or creating art. Think about a basketball player and a chess player. The basketball player needs physical skills and teamwork abilities, while the chess player needs strategic thinking. Both are smart in their own ways even though their skills are different. To apply this to your life, focus on what you’re good at and develop those skills. If you’re great at storytelling, find ways to use that talent. Don’t feel bad if you struggle with other things—everyone has different strengths. Understanding and using your special talents is more important than fitting into a traditional definition of smart.
