Simplified Meaning:

If someone has natural talent in something, it will naturally become clear when they do it. For example, if a musician is really good, you will notice it when they perform because their skill shines through. This talent can't be copied or taken by someone else; it’s unique to the person who has it. Just like a gifted athlete will show their abilities on the field without needing to boast, a person with true talent doesn’t need to do anything special to prove it. Applying this idea to your own life means focusing on developing your own skills and letting your abilities speak for themselves. Instead of trying to imitate others or take shortcuts, work on what makes you unique, and your true potential will become evident on its own.
