Not all heroes wear capes
Are geniuses born or made?
Is it always inborn?
By the way, not all craftsmen are geniuses.
Well, for a fact, potentials are inborn, yeah.
Are geniuses born geniuses too?
In as much as the answer could subjectively be a 'yes' or a 'no', we all would agree that geniuses are made, despite the fact that we are born with our potentials.
A number of factors will play a role in determining whether or not the geniuses in us manifest.
Who is a genius?
An exceptionally talented, knowledgeable, or creative person.
Now, the big question!
What does it take to make a genius?
We are all born with innate potentials.
It's now about how one can manifest the potentials fully.
It's no other way other than identifying them, developing and stretching them to the highest possible extent, and boom, manifesting the genius in you
IDENTIFYING YOUR POTENTIALS
How do you identify your potentials?
Gold is still of it's worth even if it remains under the earth not mined.
But then, the full worth and glory is discovered and appreciated only after it has undergone the rigorous processes of mining.
That's when the beauty is appreciated in it's full grace.
Same goes to talents and skills.
We are unstoppable.
There is a saying that:
In doing we become.
It's as true as the fact that the sun rises from the east and sets in the west.
We identify our potentials only by one way which is by trying different things. Do varieties, be versatile, try anything without hesitation, you will be amazed how you are going to awaken your initially latent talents and abilities.
There is no harm in trial.
Our potentials are unlimited, so not until we stop to intentionally explore different areas and niches, we can't really exhaust them.
Even when we think less of ourselves, we are always more.
Whenever we stop, there is always a little extra that we can stretch.
Wherever we stop, there is always a little extra mile we can still go.
And that's what makes the difference, the extra.
DEVELOPING YOUR POTENTIALS
It is one thing to identify your abilities, but it is another greater gain to develop them.
This is achieved by accommodating growth.
A good ambiance is created for growth through open-mindedness.
Following and looking up to people who are good in those areas too is a right track to trail in your quest for growth in those areas of interest.
With good effort, you will almost always find people who have trailed your desired path before you.
Identify the best in the game and learn from them.
That's where humility comes in.
You hone your skills and master your craft.
This way, you will get the hang of it and that invariably leads to success.
Never an easy road to trail but that's how to prove oneself worthy of manifestation of greatness.
It is worth every step of the chase.
You make your 'good' better!
STRETCH YOUR POTENTIALS
Don't stop at merely developing your potentials.
You don't want to rest on your laurels.
That's mediocrity!
Geniuses are not mediocre.
Go on ahead and stretch them to the highest possible points.
That's how to attain stardom.
You will just find yourself on limelight.
It definitely will thrill you and put you in high spirits.
You make your 'better' best!
And a genius is made!
