Question

Inteligent is not enough

Answer 1

                                 Intelligence is not Enough

Martin Luther King very wisely said, “We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education. The complete education gives not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate.” Mere intelligence without the right attitude and perseverance is useless. It has been rightly said that success is 90% perspiration, and 10% preparation. Intelligence figures quite low on the success ingredients recipe list.

All the exceptionally successful personages whom we look upon as role models have been men and women of character, matchless integrity, dogged determination, and believers and doers of welfare works. They have been men of moderate intelligence initially which they worked on perseveringly. Addison for example really had to work very hard and see many a failure before he succeeded in illuminating a bulb. So always keep in mind intelligence is not enough if you are planning to achieve something BIG in life.
