Natural talents are inherent abilities.
A natural talent is an ability or aptitude, e.g., a talent for sewing or cooking.
A talent is something we do naturally. It is something that we do not think about; we just do it.Natural talents are activities you can do or perform that others find difficult to do
Natural Talents varies from one individual to another .For instance ,my gift can be sewing and yours can be cooking.
According to Emily Lambert @Plum, skills and knowledge represent someone’s past performance, talents represent potential.” A talent assessment is the most predictive way to place people into roles where they thrive,
And accurately quantifying talents will only become more critical in the next few years.
According to Myles Monroe, your talent is your WORK .Your J.O.B(Just Over Broke)is the profession you learned

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TALENTS AND SKILLS
Talents are natural abilities.Skills are learnt abilities.What you study in school is His your profession. However ,your profession can be related to your gift .People tend to confuse the two.
learning skills can improve a professional competence.On the order hand,
learning skills related to your talents,is much more useful
In order to fully understand this,check out my blog post on “How to Refine your talent”.
In their book First, Break All the Rules, Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman differentiate talents from skills and knowledge.
“Skills” refer to the “how-to’s” of a role; whether you know how to create spreadsheets with Excel, code with Javascript, or weld.
“Knowledge” refers to “what you are aware of,” and can be quantified with a degree or designation, like BA or PhD.
Talents are recurring patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior. In other words, talents come naturally to you. Whereas skills and knowledge quantify past performance, talents quantify potential
