Do you believe in natural talent/inborn talent?
Lately I think that I wasn't just bound to do the works I usually do with so much hardwork. Studying, drawing, playing instruments whatever I tried, I always find someone better than me. I put so much effort in the things I do yet I see people doing the same thing with putting less effort than me but better than me. That's why I do believe natural talent exists. When I think that I wasn't born with something like this, I feel so depressed and I have been down for this lately. Please tell me your thoughts.
No..?
You can be better at learning or picking things up, but that's entirely separate from being "naturally good" at something.

Wow I'm suddenly getting notification of a question I asked years ago *_*
I was very depressed about my drawings back then but lately I improved, got far better than before. But I still think I did my best even back then but the difference was my lack of experience which is why I missed a lot of details about not only drawing, but everything. I...... 1 reply

You said others are better than you even without much...... reply
Yes. There does exist a such thing as natural/inborn talent where people pick up different things much faster than others; thats just the harsh reality. HOWEVER, talent alone doesn't carry you very far. Simply relying on talent will mean "untalented" people who spend hours, days, months, years, centuries practicing and strengthening their skills wi...... reply
Personally I believe in it, met tons of people who are naturally talented- that doesn’t mean that naturally talented people don’t work hard (because they do work very hard), but there are some people who are really good at things from a young age that makes them naturally talented that’s all. reply
I don't know how old you are but I want to tell you my experience.
I believe that there is natural talent and it sucks, I understand.
Back in highschool, I used to be top 10 students and get awards for my arts. I used to be good at what I do! Then I went to college, I started working and shit, I realized that there are better people than me in eve...... 2 reply

There are some situations where one teied hard and didn't succesed, but other at the same time didn't even put efort in it and done it like, perfectly.
