Talents

It's known to all that some people are born with talents and perform extraordinarily in their respective fields while others are ordinary people with aptitude.

From my perspective, everyone is a unique creation of the God and has his or her own traits as well as shining points [strengths/ strong points]. Those who are lucky enough to make full use of their talents obtain applause and public attention. For instance, singers touch their audience deeply on the stages with their incredibly amazing voices. Likewise, athletes all over the world gather in at the Olympic Games and strive for honor s for their countries. Players with lavish gifts are more likely to stand out from the crowd. Thanks to their talents, the training process may be less time-consuming than others'. However, there is no need to abase yourself if you are not born to be talented or a genius. Try to explore other potentials and do whatever you love.

I don't quite agree with the opinion that every child can become a good sports person or musician through learning, training or practice. The view is too absolute. In fact, interest is the best teacher and it should also act as the foundation for mastering a skill. It's rather painful for a person to be forced to do what he dislikes day in day out. There is no use doing so. In spite of making continues effort and being taught by excellent teachers, the possibility of cultivating outstanding professionals will be still much lower. Therefore, instead of limiting their development, following the nature of children [..., taking the cue from children...] is extremely essential. Only when they are ready to learn and practise, can they get somewhere in the end even without distinguished talent.

"Taking the cue" here sort of means to carefully observe the children interests and behaviour and act accordingly. "Shining points" does not sound very natural to me, I'm guessing this could have been translated from Chinese. I prefer to just say "strengths." In blue are just some suggestions only. Well done.
