I almost agree with you Rolf.

People do have some talent for things by birth etc, but training and hard work is far more important.

There have ocean sailors in my family since about the 1700's (when ocean sailing was REAL dangerous). Has it made me a better sailor ? Maybe. I do at times do things that I cannot explain why and they usually work out, so I believe people are born with some talent.

I'm also crap at english etc so I was born without this talent; I was far better at Maths than my class mates at school and also Computers and numercy, so yes, people are born with talents, but they only make a small difference.

Training, education and physical fitness are most important in our sport.
