There's a saying that goes, "Whatever lasts won't come easy." Hard work and drive can help anyone reach their full potential, no matter how skilled they are naturally. Improving our abilities and developing admirable attributes like perseverance, self-control, and resolve are both achieved via persistently testing and exceeding our own limitations. Youre absolutely roght in your own opinion, though for me i think both have a role to play in being successful. Best luck @aspiya
