Listen to episode 1028 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Qualities of Genius | Success Podcasts. Edited and adapted from A Book of Cheerful Counsel by Nixon Waterman, published in 1909.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Helvetius, the famous French philosopher, says: "Genius is nothing but a continued attention," and Buffon tells us that "genius is only a protracted patience." William Turner, the great landscape painter, when asked how he had achieved his great success, replied: "I have no secret but hard work. This is a secret that many never learn, and they do not succeed because they do not learn it. Labor is the genius that changes the world from ugliness to beauty."
