What determines success? There may be many reasons. This is one of the biggest.
President Calvin Coolidge once said,
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not. Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.“
He said this so well. Haven’t you seen the same thing?

I would go so far as to say that you do not even require high levels of intelligence leave alone genius. If you have only average brains but high degree of persistence, that can alone is sufficient to bring about great success.
