Most of us wonder, how much talent is needed for success. If we look toward successful people and dream about the same. According to us, these people must have some extraordinary talent, that is why they are successful whereas we are on the same stage. We also consider them talented which they are. We also have a question in our minds that they must have done many degrees to become successful in their lives. To me, this concept is wrong. There are so many skills that need no talent.
Report Of A survey
A survey says that even the people who don’t know how to sign are successful. Do you agree? I think you will also agree with my point of view that being successful in life doesn’t mean that you should be highly qualified. Today we are going to discuss the same topic that is, ‘How Much Talent Is Needed For Success.‘ Whatsoever we are going to discuss today, if this thought is deeply ingrained in your subconscious mind, then you will also be known as a master. That is why read it carefully and implement it in your life and you will see a big change in your life.
A Question Of Mine Requires Your Answer
If I ask the question that how much talent is needed for success? I will be getting different answers. Some will say 20%, some will answer 50% or 100%, and many more. Some of you also answer that luck is part of success. Many of you also think that success is not possible without luck. You need 0% talent for a successful life. Even if 10% would have been needed then those who are blind, dumb, etc, wouldn’t have become masters. If you search for such examples around you, definitely you will find scores of masters around you who have achieved success. You will find successful people around you who never went to school.
Master In Any Field
Those who knew nothing except climbing up mountains, those who knew nothing except playing games, those who knew nothing except playing drum, how they became masters. These are the questions that arise in our minds. It means that to achieve success something other than talent is needed. I am going to tell you 10 such things that need zero talent. After reading this article you can also answer whether any talent is needed for that or not.
Qualities That need No Talent
1. Punctuality
Punctuality needs no talent. A person who has never gone to school can be punctual. An educated person can also be a punctual person. It clearly shows that punctuality doesn’t need any talent. Qualification is no bar for a person to be punctual. A beggar, a doctor, an engineer, or a student can be punctual. If you have created time punctuality, there is no need for any degree. A person who has grasped punctuality is never expected to lose in life. A punctual person is not a slave to any degree. It is the gift of nature to us. Whosoever has this ability needs no talent.
2. Ethics
Following the path of ethics also doesn’t need any talent. If you have decided to follow the path of ethics at any cost and to raise a voice against injustice, my dear friend you are on the right track. It is either the inbuilt tendency or the moral values that your family has taught you. Nobody can stop you from achieving success in your life. Do you think it needs any talent or does it depends on any color, caste, creed, religion, or status? No, not at all. Once the thirst for following the path of ethics is generated in the hearts of your heart, no talent is needed in that case and you become unstoppable.
3. Efforts
No talent is needed in your efforts also. How much talent a does seed need to become a tree? It only needs the effort to explode itself. How much talent a stone needs to become a statue? It needs the effort to bear the punching of a chisel and a hammer. How much talent is needed for milk to become ghee? It needs the effort to destroy itself. So, in short, we can say that talent fails in front of efforts.
4. Body language
Positive body language also needs no talent. The body language itself speaks and is talent-free also. No degree is needed for developing positive body language. I will explain it with the help of an example. Once I happened to visit China. The problem for me was that I knew to communicate in two languages, one was Hindi and the other was English. The people with whom I wanted to communicate knew Chinese only. I was very nervous at that stage because nothing was happening my way.
Body Language Speaks
During this state of confusion, I felt the need to go to the washroom. I asked my Chinese counterparts, about the washroom. They tried to convey something to me but I wasn’t able to understand that. Then I raised my little figure towards them and they guided me to the washroom. This is the power of body language. I passed my 15 days with them using my body postures. To me, body language is the biggest language in the world, which anyone can understand. Charlie Chaplin, a great comedian shook the whole world because of his body language. Do you agree with the fact that body language also needs no talent? It has been embedded in our brains that success needs talent. Every Robert, Sunny, Dunny, etc has achieved success then why not we can achieve success?
5. Energy
No talent is needed for your energies also. A mother who even couldn’t carry 21kgs of load, when her child came under a mini truck, the mother lifted the vehicle with all her efforts. Need is only to directionalize your energies. When the inner force wakes up, all degrees, all talents, and all knowledge are left behind. This energy undergoes the process of transformation in itself and may take you to any height. You should have confidence in yourself. Never consider yourself inferior to others in any case.
You Are A Complete Person
Whatsoever God had made you, you are a complete person. I will like to explain it with the help of an example. If one piece of gold weighs 10g and the other weighs 1000g, can any one of you tell me which one is pure and superior to the other? The difference lies within their weights not qualities. The fact is that both of them are gold and gold is always gold. It is going to have the same qualities. In the same way, age doesn’t matter in the case of two individuals because both of them belong to the same species.
Use Of Energy In the Right Direction
There could be the only difference is that one is using his energies whereas the other is working without his energies. So the need is to wake up our energy levels. When the energy of dreams comes out then there is no need for talent. So, allow your energies to wake up to such an extent that nobody can catch you or even match you.
6. Attitude
How many degrees does a person need to develop a positive attitude? Even a beggar can dream of becoming rich and can also fulfill his dreams by following a positive attitude. You must have read the story of David and Goliath. David was a small boy whereas Goliath was a big giant who killed and ate people. David was very skillful in using the guillotine and decided to kill Goliath. Villagers tried to stop him because they thought that he will be killed by the giant. Villages also thought that how a giant can be killed by a guillotine.
Attitude Of David
When David was asked about it he replied that the big body of the giant is a plus point for him. He said that his no-shot will go in vain. Because of the big body of the giant, the shot will hit him somewhere on his body. This was his attitude toward the giant. Such an attitude can’t be purchased from anywhere. No degree can induce such an attitude in anybody. A positive attitude never allows negative thoughts to peep into your brain. When there are no negative thoughts in your brain means that nothing negative can happen to you means that your path towards success is clear.
7. Passion
How much talent is needed for madness or obsession? If you have a passion for doing anything or gaining knowledge, in that stage you become unstoppable. A small shopkeeper can become an entrepreneur if he has a passion for it. Anything in this world can be achieved if you have got a passion for doing it. Neither any degree nor any talent can develop it in you.
8. Habit Of Doing Something Extra
Having the intention of doing something extra needs no talent also. A person who wants to do something extra every day is unstoppable also. Every one of us has been gifted by God with one or another quality. So, don’t allow inferiority complex to creep into your brain. Tenzing Norway used to help people to climb up the mountains. His habit of doing something extra than the previous day helped Edmund Hillary to climb up the mountain successfully and become famous. He devoted his whole life to this profession and tolerated such a cold climate which no one of us can do. His habit of doing something extra made him successful.
9. Teachability
A teachable person listens to others carefully and grasps the positive things, needs no talent also. This quality makes him a good student and a good student can’t be left behind in life, in any case.
10. Preparation
A person who is fully prepared to win the battle of life, nobody can beat him. The same is the case with a student who has prepared fully for the exams and leaves no stone unturned to score good marks. The same rule is applicable in the battle of life also.
Disclaimer
I have no intention of making fun of talented people. I am addressing those crores of people who feel inferior because they think that they have got no talent. Just take it positively. Do you know how many degrees Buddha, Mahavira and so many other successful people had got? The answer is No. They only directed their energies in one direction. This is all that I wanted to convey. Even if anybody’s sentiments are hurt, I apologize for that.
