Some people say that success is '10 percent talent and 90 percent hard work' Is hard work is the key to success, or is talent also important?

#people #success #percent #talent #work
There are many people want to be successful in the world. They always show their
talent
 in the public. Many people's opinions show that people reckon that
talent
 is the main key to
success
, but in my opinion hard-working is the main key to
success
. My opinion is if you have
talent
, but you do not
work
 hard you can not show your real
talent
 to the world, so I agree that '
success
 is 10 percent
talent
 and 90 percent hard
work
' In our life, there exist tons of ways or formula to be successful in every different
person
's mind. There is no right formula for
this
, but almost all well-known famous people have one formula to achieve their
success
 is they tried to
work
 hard in their own way, they knew that if they not word hard they would not be successful like right now. In reality, Elon Musk,
this
 worldwide famous billionaire he is a talented
person
, but he works hard for his company Tesla, about 100 hours per week, so that he can keep Tesla working properly, in that situation his
talent
 are not the only key to Elon Musk
success
, but is the key for his company to be one of the largest electricity car manufacturers in the US. Other successful
person
 like Jeff Bezos
also
 works hard in his path to be the world's richest man. People have good skills in some activities like singing or math,
that is
 the natural-born talents, each
person
 have one of that. I could help you outstanding in your activity with others, but you have a desire to be an outstanding
person
 you need to choose your path,
then
 start to
work
 hard on it, never give up with difficulties you will get what you desire. Only hard-working people can never fade out of people's mind. There are a group famous people that they cannot achieve their own
success
 by just talented and hard-working, but they are famous for their strange activity, the outside, or they made a trend on the internet. The popularity of the internet makes people famous quicker than ever, but their fame did not
last
 long, without hard-working or real
talent
 you can't be a true famous
person
, there is no only luck
success
. People can be a
success
 with only
talent
, but people can only be long-lasting famous with their hard-working, when people
work
 hard their
success
 path is way shorter.
Success
 from luck can not be the ways of legends, hard-working is the way of legendary people.
