You can work hard to sharpen your talent, to get better at whatever it is that you do, and I think that's what it comes back to.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Irrespective of whether you have talent or not, one has to work hard. Just being talented doesn't mean anything; you can end up wasting it before you realize.
You have to hone your craft, but you also have to be born with a certain amount of talent, and I never took the talent for granted - I've always worked really hard to be as good as I could be.
There may be people who have more talent than you, but there's no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do - and I believe that.
If you have the talent and if you have the ability, and you work for it, you can achieve your goals.
Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.
What you learn from working with other performers and musicians is invaluable, really, and can only help you grow. I mean, if you spend your whole life focusing on yourself, you're not really learning much.
You can sometimes learn more working with less talented people, because you learn to survive.
Obviously talent gets you to a certain point, but it's what you do with it, how you handle.
What I work hard at doing is staying on a path of being kind and showing and proving that I'm a good person to society. That's hard. The talent, that's a gift. I just came here like that.
There's no such thing as talent; you just have to work hard enough.
