talent is to a person like steroids are to muscles. for those of you who don't know, steroids WILL NOT make muscles grow, the muscles have to grow, but the roids will make the muscle grow more everytime it grows(kinda like an added bonus).
so, if two people trained(for w/e the talent is related to) equally hard year round, the more talented person would have an advantage, due to his talent, he will be better. however, if an untalented person trained, yet the talented one didn't, the latter would only just be as good as an untalented person who never trained. this is due to him never accessing his talent, he never trained and improved, therefore his talent never had anything to improve.

I don't believe there is such a thing as natural talent, no matter what size, shape, or color you are, you are always good at something. (That sounds like something a teacher/counseler would say)

you contradicted your own statement in the same sentence. talent = being good at something
