A for and against essay

“It takes more than intelligence to achieve

lifetime goals”

Many people think that if you are intelligent, have the

best grades in school and you are open-minded you’ll be
successful. In my opinion you actually need these skills to
achieve lifetime goals, but the thing is you are not born with
them, most of the times you need to gain them. And the best
way is by trying different things, making mistakes and going
straight ahead no matter what.

A very interesting fact is that 1 in 600 people have more

than 144 IQ. Basically this means they are born genius. But a
genius only thinks how he can learn new things and be
smarter and smarter. He won’t be thinking for something big,
that can improve his life, his funds and his future. Intelligence
is a key to success, but if you use it the right way. You aren’t
born with it and you gain it with the time.

On the other hand, intelligence is the key to victory. For

achieving life goals you need to be open-minded and smart.
You really have a minimum chance of being successful if you
are mediocre. When you keep to the limits and don’t try to see
what’s on the other side. Intelligence helps you to make the
best decisions, which will help you a lot in future.

For summary, I think intelligence is a factor about being

successful, but not as much as the will to achieve your goals.
If you want to live the best live for you and your family you
can make the impossible possible. No matter what situation
you are in, if you want something to happen you will do
anything.
