Which Is More Important: Talent or Hard Work? By SHANNON DOYNE We’ve all heard that hard work is the key to success. But a recent study found that the “profoundly gifted” still have an edge over peers who have less natural talent but are perhaps more dedicated to improving their skills. Have you experienced the power of talent over hard work? Or have you found that success comes to the person willing to put in the most time and effort to achieve it?

Both "profoundly gifted" and hard workers can achieve success. Just because someone is "profoundly gifted", that doesn't mean they don't work hard and just because someone works hard, that doesn't mean they don't have talent because by working hard, that shows some kind of talent.

You may have heard the phrase, "Choose your battles." Write about a battle in school that you think is worth fighting, or one that isn't. Why?

In life, there will be many battles you may feel like are worth fighting and many that you will feel like are not worth fighting. That's exactly where the phrase "choose your battles" comes in. A situation where I feel like a battle is worth fighting for is if someone puts there hands on you. In a situation like that, I believe you have every right to fight that battle, simply because my parents taught me that if someone puts their hands on me, I better hit them back because they hit me first. A situation where I feel like a battle is not worth fighting is arguing with a teacher or administrator when you're completely wrong.

Dear baby,
    About a year ago, we met and automatically fell in love. It wasn't like love at first site, it was love at first site. I remember the moment my mother brought you home like it was yesterday; seeing you brightened up my day so much. I never knew a small piece of technology could make me so happy like you do. This past year has been a lot better with you on my side. You've been with me through the good and bad times, providing me with music and games to take my mind off of whatever is bothering me. There has been so many times where I wanted to cry, but you were there holding me in one piece when all I wanted to do was break down.
    Do you remember when I lost my phone when I was walking to school because I had the volume on you so loud that I didn't hear it drop? I wasn't even mad though, I was just happy that it wasn't you that I lost. If it was you, I don't know what I would've done with myself; it would've been such a hard year without you. I still can't believe we've been together for like a year. Can you believe it? The time passed by so fast.
    Lately, we've been having a few problems in our relationship and I'm sorry, just please don't give up on us. I love you so much, I don't know where I would be without you. In fact, I don't know who I would be without you. Within the past year, you've made me a better person whether you know it or not. I just can't see myself without you. Me without you is like a song with no meaning, purposeless. Baby, the point is, I need you. I know sometimes I don't show you the attention you deserve when I'm sleeping, but I promise I will change my ways. Just please don't leave me. I appreciate you and everything you do for me.
