Talented people think they know hard work, but they can never acknowledge the boost they get from their talent. Have they ever worked themselves past the limit of exhaustion? Have they ever cried themselves to sleep because of all the time they wasted trying to get a start at something they just have no talent for? If you can get good at something just by practicing every day, you're already talented. A lot of people never make it to the starting line. It took me five years to get half-decent at fighting games, and that's with having some inherent talent for games. I never managed to get anywhere with art at all, and not for a lack of trying. My guitar teacher is constantly noting that I have a talent for guitar, and I'll never try to deny it. Ignorance to your own talents is one of the most insufferable things I can imagine.
