Aptitude not attitude is the key to success?

I am having a debate competition on the above-mentioned topic. We're the government and therefore should SUPPORT the topic.

Aptitude is defined as “natural tendency or talent; ability" while attitude as “a way of thinking, acting, or feeling."

Please help to give some supporting opinion on this!

    as u hav said attitude is a way how u act,speak or project urselves to someone..ppl who hav very good aptitude hav failed miserably bcoz of thier attitude..for eg, a student may hav very good aptitude(say maths,painting,anything..) but if he doesnt hav right attitude like respecting elders,b friendly wit his friends, etc etc.. he is obviously not the ideal student to be praised..his aptitude is waste here...vice vesa is also true..hence both aptitude nd attitude is key to success

    All the best 4 ur competition..

    The most brilliant mathematician is useless if he refuses to pick up a pencil.

    The legless man can want to run the race with all his heart yet will never stand.

    Without a combination of good attitude and aptitude there is no success.
