Well I dont think talent is like starting out at level 5 when others start at level zero. A person with talent starts at level 0 as well but they gain experience with less effort. So this easy reward tends to make people less determined than someone whos always had to try really hard to get any kind of improvement. It has to do with fluid intelligence and crystallized intelligence to get scientific with it ಠ_ಠ Some people have more ability to problem solve and recognize patterns using logic and not acquired knowledge. This is called fluid intelligence where as recalling and using ones acquired knowledge is crystallized intelligence. Fluid intelligence also allows them to learn new information at a faster rate. Theres studies showing that its possible to increase your fluid intelligence but nothing has been conclusively demonstrated yet. Its a fairly new area and we dont know much about how it all works yet.
