  • You think being good at something means you know everything about it? Its skill and talent. Sports is muscle memory. If you practice something for so many years you get better at it.

    Some people are naturally going to do better possibly since they are taller or have traits more valued in that field. However practice has no correlation with the trivia. You believe you can suddenly be great at things by simply watching it on tv?

    Watching people play something does not make you an athlete, simply watching someone make art does not mean you can do it. Watching a magician does not mean you know his tricks.

    If it was really so simple everyone would be able to do this. If it was so easy we would not have competitions would we? You think gymnasts in the Olympics got there by doing nothing but watching other people? They practiced all the time.

    Its skill, talent and practice. Doing something is not the same as watching something. Observation does not magically give you abilities. Its silly you think so.

      • Well sorry I am not a expert like you think you are. You are the one coming off as arrogant. I really do not care how much you want to brag. Your arrogance does not impress me. Please get over yourself.

    • i can agree to the sports on that but not the arts as they are completely different in their essence. one of the things every artist, at least a painter, HAS to do in the later years of his/her studies is the replica so at least then he/she has to study other artists, their strokes, movements even so to get just the right effect. in my opinion you cannot create great art on any media, be it fine arts, performing arts, literature, film, etc. without massive exposure to other artists' works... if you look around every musician mentions the artists that influences their work, for instance. i mean, how can you produce something you DON'T KNOW anything of? i'd be interested to know what your take is

      • Its called art class and you realize artists have created new different ways of art. So you just experiment and figure out what works. That is if you truly care about art and like doing it. Its not like its impossible and you realize art is mandatory in school right?
