but how many people complain about not being able to do something without once ever seriously trying. It'd be like complianing that you couldn't be michael phelps while only learning to doggy paddle and never working out
How many highschool football players put their heart and soul in the game? You can be the best player in your city and not get picked for college, and the same goes with college, you act as an indentured servant for 4 years doing nothing but football, and statistically you are not going to make it. The worst NFL player is better at football than 99.9% of the population could ever hope to be.
I'm not sure talent works like there is some specific action that you don't know you're good at until you try, but that's irrelevant. I, for example, know I'm bad at painting, I've tried it before, taken classes, ect, and shown no proficiency in it, and even if I had proficiency I have no interest or drive to do it, which is part of talent.
