What are some powerful ideas in math that are also valuable in other areas?

  • An example that I've observed from conversations with mathematically trained people, is "generalization" - that is, most observable phenomenon is just a discrete case of a more generalized rule/theorem.

  • Answer:

    Knowing and being able to admit when you are right and when you are wrong.
