FINAL DRAFT: The importance of hard work over talent.

One of the common things one can hear about talent is that it will never get over hard work, but, to me, hard work is more important since it leads people to achieve their objectives and to improve their skills. Even though hard work is very important, many people think that just because they are talented they do not need to keep working, which leads them to stop worrying about improving their natural abilities. Eventually, those gifted ones will stay the same while other talented or not talented at all people might be improving their abilities to succeed and be better every day. This shows how not working hard is a waste of talent, as it does not bring those skills to their maximum splendor. Moreover, this smug behavior can make lose those unique capacities. That is why, at some point in their lives, they could find themselves behind the ones that might not be very talented, but are fighting to succeed. Of course, this is not about competing within each other, but to be grateful for the things we can do and try to do them as better as possible.
