@cypnk but what if the real gift is the ability to actually focus down and practice doing something you suck at long enough to get good, without your brain sticking little grey cartoon hands out of your ears and strangling you
@natecull There’s an impatiently gremlin in all of us. Good news is that he’s got poor stamina so if you keep him running all the time, trying to stop you, he’s gonna be too exhausted to stop you
