It's amazing what a little practice can do. One of my greatest memories is playing against a skinny guy 6'6", and me at just 6' holding him to just one rebound. True, I outweighed him, but I totally stopped him. As someone who loves to play basketball ball, I can identify. It’s amazing what a little practice can do.

But between the not do and the do there is often a lot of 'almost do'. Practice makes perfect, as I heard when I was a child. It was old advice then and it's even older now. But you know what, that advice has been around for a long time because it's true. I've known many an average performer go on to do superbly, through dedicated effort, where a naturally gifted performer just didn't put in any effort so never got the results they were capable of. Raw talent can only go so far, but raw perseverance can go all the way. As Yoda says, there is no ‘try’, only ‘do’ or not ‘do’.
