''There are two kinds of talent, man-made talent and God-given talent. With man-made talent, you have to work very hard. With God-given talent, you just touch it up once in a while.'' says Pearl Bailey.
I have seen men with man-made talent who made there way to the top through the force of persistence and discipline. Conversely, there are several individuals with God-given talents and yet remain ordinary and unnoticed all through their life time. Little wonder the scripture puts ''I have said, ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men..." Psalms.82:6&7.
What a paradox!
Few things are indeed impossible to diligence and skill; great works are performed not by strength but by persistence. Every great success in life is a product of taking maximum responsibility for your life.
What is responsibility?
It is simply put; ''your response to the abilities in you."
Too many people with great abilities in them, fail to take maximum responsibility for it and end up as liabilities to their family, society and nation. They only watch other people do what they are capable of doing but never attempted due to lack of discipline and zero responsibility for their inherent abilities. It is responsibility that adds beauty to your abilities.
Whatever that is not put to use remains useless, its value notwithstanding. You are just too loaded to remain ordinary! Be responsible!!!
