Talent And Hardwork - A Success Combination

avatar

I don't want to write this in the form of giving motivation explaining what those words means, I'll just go straight to how they have applied to my life, how far it had taken me and how well it has been for me. When I saw the question, I had a thought I always have when I'm asked about talents "Do I have a talent?"

I've given this a lot of thought and I'm still thinking I don't have any talent... But then, I'll get reactions like "Is singing not a talent? Or is writing not one?" And I'm reminded I have this two, I'm still searching for bigger talents though haha.

Just so you know, there's a lazy side of me...

So at first glance of the question, I would have just written about my talent only since I don't think I'm hardworking considering my lazy nature. But then, I had a rethink on what talents take make me do and realize that I'm actually more hardworking.

I'm not trying to boost about being hardworking since I know there are people who are more hardworking than I am but I'm proud to say that my talent is at it's best after I put in hard work.

It is both for me... My talents requires hard work

Since I'm yet to start working under anyone, I'm focused on my blogging and vlogging... This two things go together for me to succeed with my line of work right now. Although, I'll say my talents play a bigger role for me as I wouldn't be hardworking if I didn't have the talents.

To sing a song... One is bound to have a lot of hurdles to overcome before the song comes to a good enough finish for sharing... It isn't easy as it sounds, I've had lots of stress and difficulties with my singing talent ever since I decided to sing especially when I became a part of a singing group.

To write a post... Any Hive member who writes genuinely and with originality will agree that it isn't easy to write too. I remember how hard it was for me to develop my writing talents even though I wrote a lot of stories during my childhood. I can even remember working on my handwriting styles to make my stories more presentable.

Hard work and talent are a success combination

While talents play a big role in one's line of work, hard work takes it farther... I don't think I'd have gone far with my talents if I chose to be lazy with them. I may not be as successful as any would think but I'm not where I was before, thanks to my talents and the hard work I put in to get here.

In the future if I get to work offline, I'm hoping hard work will prevail more for me because there are just some talents that won't work without the determination to be hardworking. For now, it is both for me... Talents and hard work.

Talent like writing codes right? 😂😂
Both works together to achieve the best result. Without hard work to one´s talent, there wouldn´t be a success at all. So if we must be the best at something, it requires us to work hard.

For every human, it doesn't end with just having a particular talent. Hard work takes things to the next level for everyone who applies it to their talent.

Also, I would like to add, you might spend years working hard toward your dream and then see it slip through your fingers for reasons totally beyond your control. So better to enjoy the journey/road as well.

Well I will disagree with you particially my dear, that it doesn't really happen that way, I can tell you that there are some topic that when you write on naturally, you just keep on typing and flowing like you wrote the words down in your brain before, tell me am wrong if you don't have that particular niche of yours that doesn't gives you trouble to write on ..

That is why I said partially my dear, some but not all, Same as me, writing about love, heartbreaks and experience in the real life just keeps on flowing in me just like how I have only experienced small of this things but I have seen and heard and that makes me equipped..

I am Weak on finance related post but I see you doing beautifully well in it and your vloggs also and I must commend you for that dear...

So I am telling you that it is easy to write in your niche, your favourite topic and your strength and not others.

As a blogger my dear, writing isn't easy with the writers block and deadlines and I must agree with you that talent and hardwork should be utilised together to achieve greatness...

One is dysfunctional without the other MD that is why we make use of everything in our blogging life...
You have said a lot And I agree with you my dear...

Learning and understanding your Talent is the first step while hard work is the fundamental step..

Thank you 😊 for this impeccable write up my ......law. Lol 😂😂
A little bit of trouble makes it sweeter Lol 😂😂😂

I don finally get your time now 😂
I see the long comment, I just run comot sharp sharp first... Nor be me you wan carry read this kind thing for comment section 😑

I get your argument, it's very valid... There are some topics I don't stress at all to write a lengthy post on so yeah, it isn't hardwork at that point.

And that is why I said, talent play a bigger role because if the talent isn't there... Hard work won't come to play.

Well done for arguing your case well, if na court... We don win 😂

If there's one thing have come to accept about life is that Determination goes a long way too. You can't just only work hard if you haven't determine in your heart about your expectations. I believe that all go together.
