...because unlike some, I wasn't in line when they were handling out perfect genes.

About This Quote

Someone who is smart and successful is often said to have been born that way. This means that they were able to pick and choose their parents and that their parents had the same traits as them. The idea that someone was born with certain traits is a common one. They say you were lucky if you were born into a family with lots of money, or to a family where you knew how to walk and talk before you learned to crawl.

So many people feel like they are lucky to be born with certain things. Unfortunately, there are people who aren't blessed in this way. They weren't lucky enough to be born with perfect parents.

Maybe their parents weren't smart enough to pick the right traits, or maybe their parents didn't have the ideal traits to begin with. Either way, these individuals still have the potential to grow into something great, but they won't find it if they don't work at it.
