Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent.

It’s weird how the world works. Talented people waste their talent and it never gets recognised and some untalented people become crazy successful. I really liked this little nugget of yours. A lot of talented people are also lazy and coast on their talent rather than cultivating and harnessing it so it’s the hard work that really needs to be emphasised.

Thanks! I have a framed piece art of this specific quote on my wall. My daily piece of motivation in all my endeavors. I truly believe it takes allot of hard work, persistence and a little bit of luck for success. That luck part is the magic ingredient!
