Let's talk about the discipline and hard working

Is succes only achieved through discipline and hard work ?
I can't desribe this point completely. Success is depend on personal abilitiy, and talent too. There is some researches about several sciences that scientists cannot be succesful whatever they do.
Evolation is one of these. This thought came up with Darwin many years ago, and eventough some scientists have been supporting this theory for a long time, it wasn't verified by that scientist. I cannot tell anything about discipline and hard working in this situation. I think this situation is except. Yet on the other side if somebody work deeply and patiently, and if that working possible to do. There is no handicap for success.
I want to describe these words above. Discipline and hardworking are almost similar to each other, and these conditions complete each other too, but succes is not just achieved through discipline and hard work. Succes depends on different position that has person.

What do you my friends think about these?

Unbelieveable. First time I'm at home for 3 days. It's my the longest vacation since I came USA. I have taken a toefl exam last friday, and It was very tiring and boring because I had to sit on a chair almost five hours. All different and weird staffs like listening, speaking, reading and writing. I think I couldn't my best. I was nervous little bit. If I took one more time I'm going to do better, but I hope I don't have to take. Anyway time is passing quickly so I have to get along well with English :))))

No Pain No Gain

Have ever you said ''I don't want to go through this again'' I said. When I was in university in Turkey. I was prepring some research assigments about Turkish folklore. Those were fabls, myths, some legends, and lots of things about life style of rural area's people. In fact sometimes I was going to cemeteries to translate ancient gravestones from Ottoman Turkish to current Turkish. I had to go to some villages to research. I confronted with some difficult positions. Some of the people were trating me as if i was a weird person, a spy or somebody like that. They usually weren't telling me anything but I was going for broke to get somethings from those people becuse I had to do my best for pass that class. I have prepared four project for four semesters, and I achieved a good job. At the end of the last semester I said I don't want to go through this again! But I think these are all good and useful experiences for me, and These were funny things though. I wish I could research American folklore too.
