Is natural talent largely irrelevant to great success? Or is it "you've either got it or you don't"?

Tom Jeager once said the best swimmers in the pool are the sprinters. It was his philosophy that no one chose to be the "mile guy". He just couldn't sprint as well as the sprinters so he had to train for the mile. Believe me, if I could have been a sprinter I wold have. Not because they are lazy, but you have to admit, churning out 20k a day to swim the mile sounds a lot less fun than traing for the 50/100.
