Is the capacity for hard work and discipline at different scales not a form or kind of talent in itself? Why do people separate hard work from talent?

This is my opinion - and you do not need to be congruent with it…

Talent is different from hard work. People that work so hard do not understand the meaning and the value of hard work. But this idea is something that makes us value the notion of reasoning that is justified to be good. Talent, then, itself is more than this. It is something that is or has to do with the idea of understanding yourself. And, I have to say the following: that the talent of the person depends on the worth of the person. But the idea is this: that talent comes from working hard and that is the truth.

No matter how many times and days you spend on long distance running, that Kenyan from the rare mountain air will outrun you at the Marathon.


No matter how much you race around a F1 track, that kid with a super sense of balance, fearlessness and coordination will beat you each time.


No matter how many books on maths you read, you may never get stochastic differential equations.

Capacity. It’s the amount of something that one can capture, create and deliver.


Work. It’s activity involving mental/physical effort done to achieve a resul

No matter how many hours you spend with your brushes and canvas, creativity and technique may not knock on your door.


Hard work gives you muscles and a bad back…talent uses a lever.

HARD work is something most do not want to do. Because mostly it is like that:

You are right - because hard work pays:

So - you can achieve certain things by hard work - but sadly not everything. Certain talents can not be matched - for example - compare a NATURAL singer to a singer who just HITS THE TUNES RIGHT - means - a Whitney Houston and a Jessye Norman and an Ella Fitzgerald to an Elton John - there sorry - Elton John is a PERFORMER - not a singer - but he performs amazingly - i did not know till a man who studied Music & Art told me the difference. And then i felt like

So - there you go - listen to the three ladies - and then listen to Elton John - and maybe you will hear a difference - or maybe not…

RE: Talents and HARD WORK - AND SMART WORK…
