Can anybody get good at chess?
Definitely. I know of players up to FM strength that have never really trained chess and only gotten that strong by playing. They started when they were very young and have played a ton of tournaments. Keep in mind that playing in tournaments is the best form of chess training there is.

It's much going from bad to average than it is going from average to good, and it takes astronomical work for an elite player to go from elite to a smidge better.
