How do people find their inner(内在的)talent?British author and speaker Sir Kenneth Robinson talked about this at TED. He told a story about Gillian Lynne, a great dancer and choreographer(编舞者).
Gillian Lynne never did well in school as a child. Her mother was quite worried about her. She took Lynne to see a doctor. Then, the doctor said to Lynne, "I need to talk to your mother now. Please wait here. "As they left the room, the doctor turned on the radio. He then said to Lynne's mother, "Just stand and watch her. "
The doctor then turned to Lynne's mother and said, "Mrs. Lynne, your daughter isn't sick. She's a dancer. Take her to a dance school. "
So she did. Lynne's new dance school was full of people just like her —people who had to move in order to think.
Lypne later went to the Royal Ballet School, one of the world's greatest dance schools, and became a great dancer, After leaving the school, she worked on some of the most successful musicals in history.
