There are grandiose dreams whenever you start something new. A yearning desire to master something right off the bat, to do the impossible, to be the best without ever practicing, and this naive belief that you’ll beat the odds. All while everyone who has come before says, “That’s not going to happen.”
And it’s only through defeat after defeat after defeat that you come to understand reality.
Those odds are what they are for a reason. You’re not a demi-god. You’re human. And humans, well, we suck at things just up until we don’t suck at them anymore. We need time to learn, to experience, to fail.
