talent is never enough.

Posted by citipointelive on Tuesday Nov 3, 2009 Under Inspiration

Ok….So, I have just started reading Talent Is Never Enough by John C. Maxwell. I think it is going to be incredible based on the fact that I have only read the introduction and things are jumping out at me all over the shop. He points out some things in life that do not require talent. Continuing, he says that talent is great, but without discipline you will eventually be passed by people with maybe not so much talent but that have a little drive.

Even in the first couple of pages of this amazing book, I am learning the things that can make you a success that do not require talent.

Punctuality, a good attitude, patience, unselfishness, team work, respect, effort, a desire to see others succeed and honesty are just some of these vital keys. Talent is awesome and God given, however if someone with a “Talent Level 8” who does nothing extra and relies on their talent alone would most definitely be surpassed by someone with a “Talent Level 4” who practices those things that do not require talent that I mentioned.

Just a little something on my mind
