For every profession, required skills are very important. Today, relative importance of natural talent and training in different professions is the most frequent topic of discussion. On one hand, many people argue that natural talent is mandatory for every person to perform well in their field, particularly those who are associated with sports, art or music.

These arguments will be analyzed prior to coming to a reasoned conclusion.
It is felt by many that anyone can become a good sports person or musician if one is trained by professionals.

For example, Azhar Ali, who is currently a member of the Pakistan cricket team, started his domestic cricket career as a bowler but coaches gave him batting training and today, he is a one of the most successful batsmen in the world. This example clearly shows that anyone can be trained to acquire new skills. Thus, it is clear why some people gravitate towards this point of view.

On the other hand, many people believe that innate talent is what makes a sportsperson or musician the best. For example, de Villiers has natural talent as a cricket batsman and Messi has natural talent as a footballer, and they are the best in their respective sports; no one can complete with them. Thus, the above facts clearly show why some people support this claim.

After analyzing the above points of view, it is believed that a person with natural talent is peerless, a person who gets training but does not have natural talent can never compete with a person who was born with talent.
