“Talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see”. Arthur Schopenhauer
Genius is often thought of as a “rare form of intelligence”. This quote implies that to truly make a difference, you have to not only hit a target others don’t yet see – but it must also be one that they value more than the one they aimed for in the first place.
It’s about being more than inspiring – it’s about exceeding another’s expectations by creating a possibility they never even imagined. A possibility to make a bigger difference for another, a cause, or audience you care about helping to advance.
