(offtopic) Forum warning (on behalf of busy Admins): This post is not related to TECHNOLOGY...will be closed very soon:evil:
Well, 99% of threads in Fight-Club are NOT related to tech,and those which are related actually lead to OS Wars.Where are Quality Posts?? Where is this world leading to?? I would think removing chit chat and fight club would be better option...

Coming back to topic, I think Good Behavior is more important

Okay,so you've got Talent but if u lack good behavior surely you would face problems.For example, a boss in a company is extremely talented , but he has a bad behavior and attitude...So is he satisfied ? No,he may have fame,money and all but he may regret it later...Similary if a boss in a company is having a good behavior ,his employees would always honor him with dignity and respect instead of "Forced" respect....

As per the the given topic, you have to give higher priority to either of the two.

While Talent may take you to the top ,its actually Good Behavior that maintains you at the top!

Also, Humans can be talented at any given time.Getting knowledge and being Talented is an easy job.But it's actually Good Behavior thats sometime quite tough to achieve and maintain.

that is why there is a technical interview and a HR interview

technical: tests talent
HR: tests behaviour and adaptability (apart from doing bargaining)

I would have given +1 to luck

Talent is required ...but only 50%...
behavior...nobody cares
Luck...how u perform that particular day is most important

Aug 6, 2009 at 3:36 PM
I don't believe in Luck. You performance depends on your
preparation not on some theory created by lamers and weaklings called Luck.

Talent helps you earn money, while good behaviour helps you earn friends and respect. Its your call really as to which is more important. To me both are.

as far as luck goes, its all a matter of probability....if you want a good project, your probability of getting it depends on how hard you work...you work very well and really hard, then you have a high probability thaat you will get the projject...this others, who dont get it, view as "lucky"....I really understood the difference after playing poker.

i think firstly good behavior is very important after that talent comes into the play.
for example if a person has talent but no good behavior then that person can`t earn money according to his or her talent or earning will be surely very low. And if a person has good behavior and talent then he she can earn proudly and everyone says that, that such person has good behavior and talent too. And if a person has only good behavior then everybody knows him for his good behavior and he or she can get work only on his good behavior and after sometimes that person become talented.

So Good Behavior is the key for talent.

Talent is more Important then Behavior
if u have the talent then obviously your behavior will be good :D

So many people with truckloads of talent are the worst behaved. Dave Mustaine is just one among the numerous examples.

I wonder why nobody still quoted this!

"Character not brain will count at crucial moment" - Albert Einstein

And I agree with him! :)

Talent is more Important then Behavior

people who dont agree with this
8/10 talented people will have good behavior :)

And where are those statistics from!! :D

Not necessarily...

eggxactly!

So many people with truckloads of talent are the worst behaved. Dave Mustaine is just one among the numerous examples.

Good behaviour is almost no more in this world now :(

Good behavioural skills will help you grab opprtunities to use your talent.. Having just talent wont take you anywhere..Having good behavioural and interpersonal skills will put you in a position where you can develop your talent as you learn to benefit from the opprtunities..

Brain is like your cpu, good behavioural skills are like motherboard.. If you dont have a motherboard, it doesnt matter if you have a celeron or you have a corei7.. But if you have a reasonably good LGA775 motherboard, u will be able to use your processor inspite of how powerful or how weak it is.. did u get it?..

moral of the story is, you need good non technical skills to advance in life..

Luck is the biggest thing I suppose.

I have a close friend whom I've known since class 5th. He is so much well mannered & nice. Plus, he's very talented.

He prepares well for everything, every time.

But alas ! His luck doesn't support him. He always gets very less compared to his talent and preparation.

Same with my cousin. He's doing C.A. During each exam schedule, something bad happens, (mostly, someone seriously ill in family), which in turn affects his studies !

What more can you say about bad luck now ?!!

Talent is just a product of experience and good behavior does translate to good experience so i guess good behavior is more important.

The person who has talent knows how to behave to different persons.
Good behavior is not necessity
