Talent is overrated. The ability to work hard is much more valuable.

The ability to work hard is itself a talent, but I'd agree that it's more valuable than most.

You are good at what you do frequently. If what you do frequently has low RoI in terms for satisfying your desires, you should stop doing it and do something else.

I'd rather put it as everybody has the opportunity to develop their talents and skills.
