Prodigy vs talent vs hard work. Is a prodigy born or made? How important is talent compare to hard work? What is the role of the educator nowadays compare pre-Google days? In this episode, I am honored to have Judit Polgár, Chess Grandmaster, on to talk about her origin story, her take on the education system nowadays, how can chess be translated into education, how can an adult learn a new skill at a high level.
