A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals. – Larry Bird
Talent is a good starting point when you’re working toward a 
goal. But talent alone isn’t going to get you to where you want to be in life. I think most of us have known someone who is truly gifted in some way, yet has accomplished nothing with their gift. Usually because they don’t work, or put any effort into developing said gift. So take the talent that you have (and we all have one talent or another) and work. Focus your energies on that talent and do what you can to make it stronger and watch as you achieve your goals.
