And raw talent itself cant take u all the way. We dont need Akhtar for that Vinod Kambli is a case in point. <BR/><BR/>Its just that some of us have it naturally and hence may need to work less harder at it than others. <BR/><BR/>Investing to me in the long run and I mean covering multiple bull bear market cycles ( Performance in one cycle means nothing to me) is about hard work. <BR/><BR/>Intelligence is a necessay condition but not a suffcient condition. <BR/><BR/>Cheers <BR/><BR/>NinadNinad Kunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275940021296930028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120517700412488632.post-19342262213687381142009-03-01T16:51:00.000-08:002009-03-01T16:51:00.000-08:00NK:You said it correctly.

Taking your example, about Sachin T, he is gifted and talented, do you believe he is not hard work? I think he is hard working, thinking, honest to cricketing skills, etc. The degree of hard work is perhaps different. Another talented one is across the border called akhtar... 5 years down the like nobody will perhaps talk about him.....<BR/><BR/>Rahul D. is hard working and his talent is ability to focus, concentrate, etc<BR/><BR/>So you need both together to succeed.income.portfoliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06576906956732153866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120517700412488632.post-85042907961194786962008-09-29T09:54:00.000-07:002008-09-29T09:54:00.000-07:00This was a good article , gave good insight ...

A high IQ need not necessarily translate into success. I m sure there are enough individuals with prodigious talent like Sachin’s who never make it in life. Clearly it is just not the talent but also the effort, temperament and maturity in him as a individual that has made him successful. There is enuf talent which has lost its way. Case in point is someone like Vinod Kambli. <BR/><BR/>I personally think there are individuals who are born with prodigous talent in all streams like a Amadeus Mozart, Michelangelo, Ramanujan, Pele, Einstein, R D Burman, A R Rehman etc but they really are the outliers who fall beyond the six sigma. Most people who are successful are within the six sigma range but very high in attitude, values and determination. <BR/><BR/>Success to me is 1% intelligence and 99% attitude. The 1% intelligence/ talent is a necessary condition but not a sufficient condition. <BR/><BR/>Will try to lay my hands on the book that you suggested. <BR/><BR/>NinadNinad Kunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275940021296930028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120517700412488632.post-21086763693750836962008-08-01T10:43:00.000-07:002008-08-01T10:43:00.000-07:00ninadthis has been an area of interest for me i.e ...ninad<BR/>this has been an area of interest for me i.e are geniuses or highly talented individuals in any fields born that way or do they develop into that through hardword and determination<BR/><BR/>i have written on it on my blog. read the book - growth mindset by carol dweck who has done considerable research on it. also there was a detailed article on this in fortune sometime back which also spoke about tiger woods<BR/><BR/>key point - natural talent is not as critical in determining success as the ability to learn and determination. people like tiger woods and sachin tendulakr (a friend used to play with him as a teenager) put an immense effort and are clearly passionate. <BR/><BR/>i think that more than anything determines successRohit Chauhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00356455735241398199noreply@blogger.com
