Meh talent is something I don't care too much about. I've seen many "talented" people throw away their gifts for something else, and I've seen normal people create something amazing from practice and work.

Talent is a predetermined trait that lowers the learning curve for you or increases your potential above average people in certain areas. The truth, however, is that the majority of most craftsmen, artists, etc is spent learning and perfecting fundamentals; a level attainable by average humans at variable rates of course. Talent just tells you how much further you can get after you reach that level of perfection.

tl;dr Stop bitching about your lack of talent and work on your fundamentals. Now have some more of my shitty material.
