First, how do you prove that someone has no talent? becuase currently your argument is circular: person succeeded? -> talent, thats not what talent is, since people with talent could fail if they are never given the opportunity right? in another comment you asked about the difference between talent and inborn traits. the difference is that people find ways around inborn traits, while talent, as you said, "is everything" also, what skillsets require talent? paying taxes? working 9-5? being good at basic arithmetic? putting on a pair of pants?

@@harrietjameson Putting on a pair of pants requires no talent, obviously.

@@rivenz6 so where is the line drawn?

@@harrietjameson Maybe for the things only top 5 percentile can do?

@@rivenz6 5%, so like every niche skill requires talent? i make something new and it immediately qualifies? incomplete definition quick side quesiton: seems like you always ignore my most important arguments and always respond to some weak link. Why defend your argument in the most cowardly way possible? also, there arent numbers for how many people are good at a certain skill, or even numbers on how many people engage in a certain skill. So getting your 5% is literally impossible finally, how do you know this, how do you know that just because most people can do it, it doesnt require talent, cuz as far as im concerned the definition of talent doesnt include numbers. Thinking could be classified as a talent since its an innate ability you have from birth

Talent real

I second that. Real

@@Jenny-c9i why would god screw some ppl and bless others if he wants us to work hard if some of us can’t be that good?

@@Graeme-ve8tg no. You can’t be ‘just good’ at something

@@Sweatyemoboy Yeah but some people are just amazing without even trying hard, because I seen it. Then others who try really hard are not even any good, even after lots of years trying. So that's just how it is.
