Conspiracy Theorist:

Jim has made a point to show us that a wizard needs to believe in what they are doing for it to happen. This was shown recently in The Law but also in Torn Coat when Laccio didn't/couldn't use magic to kill LaFortier. Could this system of belief have a role to play in what you are best at? So if you believe you are good at finding things or elemental magic, maybe that becomes stronger? I admit this is a bit of a stretch but an interesting thought.

I loved “Torn Coat” aka Changes (damn autocorrect)

This only shows a characteristic lack of imagination in old wizards. Anyway, your theory has merit. I believe therefore I can is quite popular in magic systems (And inspiring clichéd parts of most movies).
