"才能とスキルの分離は、優れようとしている人、夢を持っている人、何かをしたい人にとって最も誤解されている概念の一つです。才能は自然に持っています。スキルは、何時間も何時間も自分を鍛えることによってのみ開発されます。"

Will Smith

Simplified Meaning:

Some people think talent and skill are the same, but they are very different. Talent is something you are born with; it’s a natural ability. For example, some people might have a talent for singing because they have a good voice from a young age. However, skill is something you develop through practice. Even if you have a good voice, you have to practice singing for many hours to become a great singer. This means working hard every day, learning new techniques, and constantly improving. To succeed in anything—whether it's sports, music, or any other field—it’s not enough to just rely on your talent. You must also put in the hard work to turn that talent into a skill. So, if you have a dream, don’t be discouraged if you don’t see progress right away. Understand that it takes a lot of time and effort to get really good at something. For example, a famous basketball player may have had a talent for the sport, but they also spent countless hours practicing on the court to become one of the best.
