Then practice. Nearly no artist was born knowing how to draw or paint, we dedicated countless hours to learn what works and what doesn't.
As a musician, I couldn’t agree more. Talent really helps with initial aptitude, but will peter out when challenged. That’s when real skill development begins. Time and investment connecting you to your craft until there’s nothing in the world between the two, that’s self actualization.
But that's not fun for them. You get really good at things you like to do.
It feels like you didn't read the 2nd half of their comment. They do practice. They have a creative side that they want to explore, but they don't enjoy that sort of grind. Instead, they like tinkering and combining tools in interesting ways. I don't think this is a bad thing.
Leo Fender didn't play guitar and always wished that he'd sit down and devoted the time, but never actually enjoyed it. But to say that Leo didn't contribute to the music world, would be insane.
