TREASURES BEYOND TALENT

A whole lot of scholars with talents make it to the podium, but only those with strong character stay there for long. According to J. C. Maxwell, ‘when it comes to talent, everything is not always as it seems to the casual observer. Sometimes what happens to be a huge success isn’t. and in time, the truth comes out’.

In essence, beyond talent, integrity, goal setting and a sense of responsibility are ingredients needed to transcend a flash in the pan-like strike at success.
