Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
~Tim Notke~
Talent? Meh. I think it's overrated.
Talent is like being born into a really wealthy family, in my opinion. You think you got it all, but don't forget that you still need to grind on your craft to build that skill. Because skill on the other hand, is not simply a given. No talent in the world can outperform skill single-handedly.
I see talent as a skill-enhancer. Without the required man-hours put in, talent is worthless. It needs to be paired with the necessary skill set to function as a unit.
This is where many people become naive. They think that because someone is talented that they cannot be outperformed. That's a lie. Because hard work beats anything.
There are so many people out there who are talented at things, but do not work on those talents. So they just rot away, and take their genetics for granted. Do not take your gifts for granted. Use them! To the best of your ability!
I like to think of Usain Bolt in this example. Bolt has run the 100m dash faster than anyone in history. He is the perfect example of talent mixed with skill. Have you ever seen how this man trains? Long story short, he puts in the work.. The man-hours. So he deserves it. On top of that, he is showing gratitude for the gifts he has been given, by putting them to great use.
So my question for you is.. Are you doing the same with your talents?
