Essentially, an extremely talented person starts out with $1,000,000; however, if they never practice it never becomes worth more than it is. Yet a relatively untalented person may start out with like $1,000, but if they practice for hours a day every day for years they'll be worth a lot more than a million dollars.

When I was about 6 my teacher told my parents that she suspected I was dyslexic. At 17 I got hired as a video game and movie reviewer. At about 19 I got a couple of short stories published and currently I'm working on a novel I hope to get published.

I don't believe I was ever particularly talented at writing, I'm a creative person, but it's never been one of those 'click' things, I've just wanted it all my life. Give me a hammer or a saw and I'll build you anything, I even worked as an electrician for a couple of years. I've put in stairs, I can plaster a wall as well as drywall, I can wire your house, plumb it and give you a gas line. When it comes to hands on work I can do virtually anything, but I've never had this ability with words or writing and I believe this lack of ability always made me try harder with it. Now I don't want to do anything other than write for a living; although I wouldn't mind taking Electrical Engineering, either for work purposes or for building a giant robot army to take over the world... you know which ever pays more.
