My summary of the whole discussion:

genius_level = talent_genes * hard_work * know_how

talent_genes - natural ability to be good at something

hard_work - amount of practice, willingness to practice hard is determined by genes, but can be also artificially increased by the demanding parents or trainers

know_how - knowledge of discipline secrets by coaches or teachers
