I would add that as a fourth requirement to compete at the very top level along with the other three. A degree of luck is also necessary.

A fifth requirement.
None of that means hard work is NOT a requirement too - and one of the most important.
Without hard work Messi gets nowhere. But if he has the other things going for him, eventually he will get lucky by just being persistent.
- ZephyrBlu 5y agoThe issue is that you can't know if you meet the other requirements, so it's easy to think "I'll get lucky by just being persistent" and you never go anywhere.
- koonsolo 5y agoThat is true. If you want more certainty, get a job. But if you want to shoot for the stars, you might end up in a situation where your hard work doesn't pay out.
