Why not just really put your heart into doing whatever it is you would like to do well? Some people are naturally talented, but hard work counts for a lot too. I don't feel like I have that much natural ability for the arts (especially when you've got 14 year olds out there capable of photo-realistic drawings, which is something I just don't have the patience to even attempt) but that's all I've done, from the time I was young. I would just sit around for hours and draw... and I think I'm pretty decent at this point.
You don't have to be an idiot savant to do what you love and do it well, you just have to be dedicated to it. :)
I totally agree with this. I was the "smart kid" when I was young and it really wasn't all it was cracked up to be. The whole time, I just wanted to fit in and have friends.
Is it normal that sometimes I wish I was an idiot savant?
