Thought Tweet #403 "But you've got to use your talent if you want to profit from it." Robert Collier (1926)
The Thinking Behind the Tweet
Two thoughts here:
First, Collier put the word 'use' in italics to stress the fact Thought alone is not enough...there must be Action.
Second, and this is reading between the lines, when it comes to work - Talent and Action together do not guarantee success. Talent and Action must be backed by relevant Knowledge and Focused practice to create Skill development.
