What actually is it?
Probably a daft question but what would you say talent actually is?
For example, hundreds of kids from like the age of 5 or 6 will start playing football(soccer). They'll continue on in academies and such till the age of 16-18 trying to improve every day and make it as a professional. Only a very select few out of so many thousands will actually make it as a professional, even though most of them have been practicing and training for nearly their whole life.
I imagine it's the same for a sport such as Basketball. You'll have academies etc where kids from young ages will start but only a select few will ever make it out as a pro.
I know there's many different reasons why only a few make it but what about the talent side of it?
Did they have the talent but not the other stuff needed or did they just simply not have the talent even though they've practiced their whole life to try and be good enough.
I know i've made a mess of trying to explain what i mean but tbh i don't think i know what i mean myself.
Simply put, what is talent?
