I think talent is merely a head start in terms of understanding (knowledge, way of thinking, ability, other thing the field of expertise requires...) due to favorable /dev/urandom. Once an "untalented" person reaches these same parameter values, there's no longer any difference. If they are still finding it harder to progress, they are missing a fundamental piece of the above and should address that first.
Effort is king.

As a child I was fascinated with computers. I don't know what about them fascinated me but I knew they were powerful tools. For the longest I had the mentality that those with natural talent are meant to be programmers but recently I heard a quote that changed my perspective completely it says, "What I lack in natural talent I make up for in discipline." I'm learning my first language now and I'm obsessed with it and I'm learning new things everyday. I don't ever see myself stopping.
