Do guts suffice to deal with challenges? Can you overcome any difficulties if you have "guts"? Just with it, definitely not, I believe. However, in Japan, the idea that you can achieve anything if you try just hard (even without a plan) is still in common. A football player I respect disappointed me a lot, as he reportedly told young people that gut is the most important when facing challenges. I don't deny the importance of guts, but, personally, what required at first is a clear vision. You would waste your time and energy when you go on a wrong way. Firstly, you should have a map and be smart enough to use it. As the Japanese football star has quite big influence on fans including children, I hope people don't get wrong that dream can be achieved just with a blind effort.

Do guts suffice to deal with challenges?

I don't deny the importance of guts, but personally, what is required first is a clear vision. You would waste your time and energy if you go at it the wrong way. At the very least, you should have a map and be smart enough to use it.
「first」はリストのイメージが感じます。でも、リストを作りませんでした。「まず」の意味がほしがっていますか?ここ、「at the very least」は近くの意味だと思います。/ "first" sounds like a list, but you did not make a list. Did you want a meaning like まず? I think "at the very least" has a similar meaning here.
