Harvard Math’s thoughts on an ideal attitude
I’m getting ready to apply to grad schools, and looking over different math program websites and I came accross this lovely kernal of knowledge from Harvard.
“On the whole, we feel that the ideal attitude is: (1) a love of the subject for its own sake, accompanied by inquisitiveness about things which aren’t known; and (2) a somewhat fatalistic attitude concerning “creative ability”, and recognition that hard work is, in the end, much more important.”
SHit…I’m the ideas guy…I hate hard work….FuCk
