Episode description

Most people suffer from the "natural giftedness" delusion. They think that successful people are born naturals who master things immediately -- and -- If they try something new and they're not good at it and confident on the first few tries, it's just not meant to be. This sort of thinking is fucked up. Everybody is born into this world the same way. Everything must be learned through practice. Sheer repetition, consistency and time. You will NEVER be successful in life or business until you turn the hard things you avoid doing into base instincts. Things you execute on all day, every day, without even thinking.  To do this you have to go through a few stages: The first one is to brute force your way through, then turn it into a habit, then turn it into a base instinct. The magic happens when hard things become base instincts.
