ON DEFINING YOURSELF

 

As working professionals we often see ourselves or people at large at 

different levels of achievement.Has it something to do with internal hardwiring?

Are there cosmic blessings with some? Or do we aquire it over a period of time?

Is it experience at interplay with intelligence?Here is a layman's indicator I created 

towards understanding this.You can add/ modify as per your perception.

HARD WORK: Totally innate   BASIC SURVIVAL

SKILL set: largely acquired ,partly innate COMPETENCE

TALENT: partly acqd., largely innate     EXCELLENCE

GENIUS: Totally innate.Gift of nature   BRILLIANCE

Here is a related aspect inspired from the film 3 Idiots where the 

protagonist says''Qabil bano qabil.Qamyabi apne aap peeche aayegi.''

Achieve.Success will follow. The definition of an achievement is something 

that is accomplished, particularly by great effort, courage or special skills.

Its largely internal.Success is a favorable or satisfactory outcome or result;. gaining 

of fame or wealth.Its largely external.You can succeed without achieving 

and vice versa.Success is performance on an external,worldly 

defined parameter.Achievement is about accomplishing 

,creating competence,showcasing talent,exhibiting genius.
