Actually, I didn’t mean to imply “not environmental” (though I believe for many aptitudes and personality traits, environment gets disproportionally more attention than genetics). I only meant that these things (hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play) are aptitudes, as much as heroism or ambition or intellect.
It could be a case where heritable should not be confused with not environmental.

Isn’t “aptitude” simply another word for the genetic, non-environmental component of a talent?
