How important to success is focus?

 SUCCESS IS THE PRODUCT OF MANY COMPONENTS, OF WHICH ONE OF THE MOST PROMINENT IS FOCUS. 

      We can do many things in our lives, but we can't do everything. We can have wide interests, and to a certain extent that is good and healthy, but we shouldn't dissipate our true well of talent on too many endeavors. If genius like that of a Leonardo is wasted by too broad a stroke, then what happens to those of us who are less well endowed? As Leonardo himself wrote, "As a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand, so every mind divided among different studies is confused and weakened."
   I would posit that the less talented we are, the more focused we must be. Even the least talented can accomplish grandiose achievements if applying themselves ferociously, consistently, and with enough focus over time. In fact, it seems that often the greatest accomplishments go to those who actually aren't all that talented, but retain just this one last shred of talent: the ability to focus intensely and over the long term.
