Whether it's golf, or learning to play the piano, or chess, I am so average it's kind of deflating. I really depends on what it is. Marty's three examples are different enough that what you're saying doesn't apply to all three equally. I always believed that physical talent is largely natural. Golf relies on physics more than intellect. The opposite could be said of chess. Piano would be between those two. As far as the mental aspect, sure one has to have enough intellect, but just being smart doesn't mean one is automatically great at something. But some things can be approached scholastically. Music, for example. Naturals in music often have perfect pitch, but mere mortals can can achieve the same level of competence by immersing themselves into music theory. |
