Believe me, other people aren't great at things as soon as they learn to do them. Everyone sucks at everything when they start out. Not sucking is a product of time invested.


Looking at the things I consider myself good at VS the things I gave up in frustration, I really don't see a difference in quality with my early work. For everything, I sucked when I started out. The difference for the things I became decent at wasn't any initial talent or anything, but just liking the activity enough to stick with it and get better.

This. In general, unless you're some kind of savant, you're going to be pretty crappy when you start out.

Or you can just be happy sucking at everything. Losing is fun by the way.

I saw this in someone's sig, but I don't know who to credit:

"Not sucking is a product of time invested."

I could have sworn I'd seen that elsewhere, though.

And how the fuck did I miss THAT? Way to go, MaximumReadingComprehension.

[Hanslanda]

Maximum can also apply to fails. Just saying.

I know someone who's last name is McFail. To be more precise, McPhail.

I stole it from someone's sig too! So you're not going crazy.

Oh, good. I still MaxFail for skimming instead of reading.

It is 2 AM and I am writing a paper on a peak oil book. Kill me. (Not MZ, though. Time Paradox.)

As Metal Gear taught me, Time Paradoxes are bad. So yeah, don't kill MSH.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Besides, I finished just now. It is the sleep time yes.

XD Ok now how did I miss that.  Must have been too depressed 

[kaijyuu]

I'm gonna go up there and hug the depression right out of you!
