How to treat the relationship between talent and hard work?

I personally think that talent is more important than hard work.

What is talent? Talent is a person's natural ability, which can make a person grow faster than others in the same field at the same starting point. Such a growth rate can't be caught up with hard work. Even if you try to catch up day and night, you may not be able to keep up with the pace of talents. Why do you say that? Look at my example and you will understand.

My high school classmate A is a typical talent in the field of mathematics. I have never seen him listen to the teacher carefully. Most of the homework assigned by the teacher is not done. He never reviews any knowledge about mathematics. Two hours for each math exam is not enough for others. It only took him more than an hour to finish it, and then he fell asleep on his desk. Every time I wake up, people in the same examination room are still struggling. You will think that such a person is a proper academic scum, but he firmly occupies the first place in mathematics in his grade, and I have never seen him take the second place.

After talking about talented people, let's talk about diligent people-my other classmate B. This classmate B is a particularly diligent person. How diligent can he be? During the break, he was studying math, reciting math formulas when he went to the toilet, reading typical examples when he was eating, and even when others were sleeping, he secretly hid under the quilt and did math problems with a flashlight. Such a diligent person, can you imagine that his math score will be the last in the class? It is no exaggeration to say that I have never seen his math score exceed 60%. It is incredible that people who study so hard can't compare with those who don't listen carefully and don't do problems.

Edison once said: "Genius often needs 99% sweat and 1% inspiration". Many people will think that hard work is more important than talent, otherwise Edison would not say so, but there is a sentence behind Edison's words, that is, "and 1% inspiration is often more important than 99% sweat." Talent is 1% inspiration, and effort is 100% sweat. With the inspiration of 1%, classmate A is thriving in the subject of mathematics, while classmate B has paid 99% of the sweat, but he can't achieve the same results as classmate A, or even fall behind many people.
