I'm sorry, he didn't say that. And it seems inspirational, but if you really look, it kinda isn't. It's nice to believe that you are capable, but just no one saw, or you were being judged by arbitrary means. But that feeling of oppression is just capitalism doing its thing. It needs to opress, to get free labour and pay lower returns than accrued, etc.
You aren't just born with talents, you can grow any talent you put your little heart towards with regular practice, and if you're overwhelmed by life and don't have space or time, again capitalism being the asshole it is.
I still think you're special af, tho, because you are. You have value way beyond what money you can accrued for some moral less piece of flob, sitting behind a desk.
Everyone has completely unique neurological wiring ~ some will be better at certain tasks than others. Being "born with talent" is a lexical shortcut for "your body brain combination is naturally effective at this task". Some people have the opposite for certain tasks and that's ok
That's entirely fixed mindset.
unfortunately we've built a society that only climbs trees and tree adjacents (eg: ladders). If you can't climb you're a failure.... also we removed any safety nets if people fall when climbing.
I initially read the title as "Albert Fish Rule" and I thought I'd find something much more dark and fucked up here haha
albert fish mentioned
Oh hey it's me.
