Assuming that IQ affects personality, and that personality and IQ affects how successful one's life will be, and that IQ and personality could be genetically inherited from your parents, then how successful in life one is is affected by heredity. And if this is the case, based on Darwin's theory of natural selection, the people with the success genes will be able to proliferate while the people without will just eventually die off.
If this is the case, then humans are living a life where their destiny is decided by their genes. You might argue that people are able to overcome their destinies by working harder. However, those people who work harder are those people with the "success" genes and therefore, we can say that being hardworking is also due to genes.
However, all of this is just hypothetical and no studies have proven this to be true(the individual tests for IQ and Personality are based on studies conducted).
