Re: Changing the Standard

[Scott Cumbo] "I HAVE NO TALENT AT ALL!"

I would bet money that this is simply an over-simplification of the facts and is hardly true, if at all.

I know people that have ten- or twenty-times my talent and in comparison to them, I may have little to no talent, at all. But I also remember the story of the tortoise and the hare and the lesson drawn from it.

The hare had all the natural innate talent that being a hare could give him. But as you said, and I have also found to be quite true, there is a tendency among those with natural talent to rest upon it and take their confidence in it.

I'll take the ones with less talent and more drive. At the end of the day, a lot more will be accomplished.

After all, you may not have natural talent but you can learn many of the rules of a thing and accomplish a lot just knowing the basics. Just ask Creedence Clearwater.

Best regards,

Ron Lindeboom
