Talent vs Hard Work

The past few weeks I have witnessing Li working very hard with her practice. She 'charges' like a bull, she is relentless, hardworking and machine-liked. I admire her attitude - ever so determined and focus. She made me realised that it is not enough to be talented or gifted but one has to work hard. The truth is hard work trumps talent.

A talented man without the drive nor uses his skill purposefully is wasted. A mediocre man willing to put in the hard work and trains relentless excels in his area of interest. Being talented may give one man a head start to the race but it is the one who consistently persists and works hard that will eventually emerged as the winner!

What are you willing to do to win in your life?
How much effort are you willing to put in to achieve your goals?
Are you consistent?
Are you relentless?
Are you persistent?
