Mathematician
through-out history has been working long and hard to find the proof in the
Fermat’s Last Theorem. Pierre de Fermat, a French mathematician, proposed that
the Pythagorean Theorem (x2+y2=z2) which no
number other than two can be the same, but he found the proof. Unfortunately,
Fermat die before delivering the news and the proof was lost to the ages. Only
Andrew Wiles had the ambition to solve it when he was only ten years old. At
that age he often visits the library; one day Andrew checked out a book about Pierre de Fermat's history and his last theorem. From then on he had a dream of
solving the theorem and finding the proof. For seven years he isolated himself
from others and even his wife to avoid any interference that would delay the
process of solving it. After seven years he finally found the proof because of
many different methods from other mathematician to achieve his dream, but it
cost him his marriage and most of his life in the process.
When have we said we would go to do something
we have dreamed since we were little and never done it? Well the world finally
has someone who did and his name is Andrew Wiles, yet he made the wrong
approach of doing so. People might get sidetracked or even give up on their
while others devote their whole lives. Everybody can find a halfway point on
achieving their dreams between abandoning them and obsessing over them. Dreams
are something that help us see the world motivate us to something better help
us see clearly, and much more but how do you know when it is too much of a
price to pay for. A life lesson from the video is, do not spend most of life on
your dream, but do it little by little so that you can have a life.
