intelligence the fifth pillar

This pillar has produced many of the greatest men in history.  This is the other pillar that alone is not enough.  Intelligence I see in two parts.  The first part is your ability to learn, this is luck of genetics.  The second part is desire to learn, this is something you must work on your entire life. If you are intelligent or very intelligent but not successful see what other pillar you can work on to get there.  I have met many intelligent people who want to use there intelligence to save the world and loose themselves in the process.  If every person uses there talents to make there life better they would find they had more to help solve the worlds problems.
