You can do all the hard work in the world and not hit 300w.
Or you can roll off the couch and hop on a bike and be rolling 300w within a couple of weeks.
The former happens much more frequently than the latter, but the latter does happen.
And that's simply genetics. So I don't agree with your last sentence at all, especially in regards to the op who was talking about a fairly mediocre (relatively speaking) wattage like 300w. Hard work does matter for many, but not for all for that level.
