What is the difference between someone who is considered a genius and someone who is considered a failure?
Before I share my insight first let’s hone in on the word considered. There are lots of people who are geniuses and there are lots of people who are failures who are not considered either…because no one knows they are. Failure comes in many many shapes and sizes…most of which revolve around not doing what you could or should. Genius is essentially someone who is intelligent or brilliant…yet without application of what value is it?
To be considered either one of these things you have to stand for something. You have to be bold…be out there…be willing to go against the status quo. You see that get’s people’s attention. They watch and see what becomes of your pursuit and passion. If you become successful in a recognizable way…you are a genius. The bigger your success the more of a genius you are considered. You don’t even have to be smart to be considered a genius..you just have to be stubborn enough and persistent enough to persevere.
If you give up on your pursuit, then you are considered a failure. It is really as elementary as this. Genius or Failure…you decide.
