Underachievers are a dime a dozen. They possess gifts that are taken for granted. They lack determination.
Overachievers are inspiring. Their commitment and perseverance are statements of character. They achieve through will and plow through all expectations.
Every now and then you might encounter a gifted person who is naturally capable of much, yet their drive is so strong that even though expectations for achievement are high, they shatter all assumptions and go where others have never gone before.
