I feel that intelligence helps and you may get there sooner but in the long run it is luck and planning and alot of hard work.

It depends on what you mean by success. I know of many people who excel at sport and make a lot of money, but don't have much intelligence. Some minor celebrities are not smart, maybe they are just a good looking model. People with a talent for singing can be very successful and don't require intelligence. Not all intelligent people do so well. Having high academic qualifications does not actually prepare you for real work. I think we all have our own strengths and weakesses and success come from whatever we achieve, despite our own limitations. Personal success does not always have anything to do with money, power or status.

Hi! I think an intelligent person has advantage to achieving success over a less intelligent person. However, a lazy intelligent person is nothing compared to a less intelligent but diligent, persevering, and industrious person. Also, being intelligent is really nice but lacking the street smarts to do some stuff needed for the job is quite disadvantageous too.

What kind of intelligence do you mean? As human being, we possess three kinds of intelligence that should all be maintained in balance: intelectual intelligence, emosional intelligence, and spiritual intelligence. Lack of one of them will create some physichological problem in human life.
