The Truth Genesis of Wealth

I can remember I once heard that it was "Attitude Not Aptitude that determined our Success". I can understand what they meant. It is not a statment meant to demean Aptitude.

Without Aptitude we could not transform Attitude into Successful Action. I'm finding that having the right Attitude is a form of Aptitude. I know that I go through various feelings and experiences. Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of the world. Other times I feel like the world is just too much to bear.

By saying that having the right Attitude is a form of Aptitude, because in order to be successful a person must develop the skill of mantaining mental focus. A successful person doesn't allow themselves to be burdened with past failures nor do they allow victories to cloud the judgement of current situations.

"Seeing the World with Eyes Unclouded" is a benefit of having the right attitude. It is a state where we can properly assess what is. Many times when people have the wrong attitude they don't see Opportunity when it is presented before them. They are unable to see solutions and unable to see roadblocks.

aptitude is something like a start point. But only aptitude cannot help. They both should go hand in hand. It is just like saying we have eyes but no vision. Aptitude is built in a person over a period of time and we are born with attitude which gets refined by experience in to a positive attitude.

Hmm.. Interesting post, really makes you think. I've met some individuals with "poor" attituted - great aptitude and at times they sail through life, their IQ out weighs their EQ. I've also seen the reverse. May also be a bit of divine providence at work maybe???

The presentation is interesting.

Good Say ! I also believe that Aptitude is part of Attitude only. It can be reformed slowly and steadily with the flow of experience you gain through your professional and personal life.

It doesn't change in a day or so takes time.
