" Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work. "

Talent is an innate ability every individual possesses. But talent alone can not win the game in life. Even if you're not talented enough but can work hard to achieve your goals, you will win.

Many people think they can't do something because they are not creative or don't have the expertise required. But the truth is, you don't need talent you need to be willing to learn that particular skill. Adopting a growth mindset can make you a thousand times better than people who are gifted and don't work on it.

Everyone has their own advantage and one must know their strength in order to can work on it. As there is no substitute for hard work no matter how skilled you are.
