I think talent IS a thing, but he's right that it's easy to use it as an excuse for not working hard.

@EpicNameBro I think a lot of what talent is, is how naturally inclined you are to be relentless and long-term focused.

@EpicNameBro i.e. how naturally you work toward your goals (Ed's suggestion), versus how naturally inclined you are to make excuses.

@yogibear_47 I don't think that accounts for people who can produce twice the results in half the time. Certainly focus and effort are

@yogibear_47 required, but some people do get things done much quicker. That's no excuse for others, though!

@EpicNameBro Gotcha. For me, when I see folks get results quickly, the first thing I think of all the work they did to gain the necessary

@EpicNameBro underlying skill set. Do you think some of that is innate?
