I read once a thought that sums up genius, intelligence and skill acquirement well I think, and you probably also think the same- along the lines of:
"IQ, talent, and circumstance define your upper bound. Hard work gets you there."
- mathgladiator 16y agoI think that's fairly accurate. I think the key is a metric which is just a strange thing we are born with as I can't exactly explain why I like computers. They are just neat. Given a metric and enough hard work, a work will be considered genius quality by someone else. The number of other people is going to be what determines if someone goes down in the history books as genius.
- billswift 16y agoI agree. And as for the original article, I have to wonder when people use the phrase "simply hard work" if they have ever worked hard themselves. "Hard work" is called "hard" work for a reason; and focused, creative, intellectual work is the hardest work there is.
