Yirmi küsur yaşında Londra’ya gitti.

In sports, one never imagines that you can get by on talent alone. Take Roger Federer or Michael Jordan, for instance. Although each man’s one-of-a-kind natural talent is undeniable, we are also keenly aware of the grueling hours of practice that were necessary to mold that talent into true greatness. So why should it be any different with creativity? http://99u.com/articles/7068/Haruki-Murakami-Talent-Is-Nothing-Without-Focus-and-Endurance
