INTELLIGENCE ALONE CANNOT GUARANTEE SUCCESS

It is not dangerous to trust intelligence, but it is dangerous to trust intelligence only. Here I would like
An other important factor that plays important role along with intelligence in making one’s life victorious is one’s resources. Resources are even more important than intelligence, because a person who has resources has plenty of options, he can opt for anything he wants, but on the other side an intelligent person with scarce resources has limited options. Therefore even if he knows what is required to be successful, he can’t fulfill it due to limited resources available. Therefore on the basis of above reasons, I suggest that may be intelligence is an important trait that one should have if he wishes to lead a flourishing life, but we cannot trust on intelligence alone for it.
 

to emphasize on the word “only”. Intelligence means ability to think reasonably, analyze and comprehend one’s surrounding. Intelligence is an important element of one’s successful life, but there are many other factors which also contributes and have strong impact like hard work, destiny, opportunities and resources, in leading a successful life. In our daily living, we come across many people who are intelligent enough but still struggling for success in their lives. The reason behind is that intelligence alone is of no use, unless one finds opportunity and favored by luck to prove himself. For in-stance, there might be hundreds of intelligent people in the era of Sir Isaac Newton but it was his fortune and opportunity which took him underneath the apple tree and he came up with an idea of gravity due to that fallen apple.
