Love it, but not good at it.

    Over the years, I have tried various jobs & hobbies. Some of them I have loved....but I just wasn't good at some of them! No matter how I tried, how much effort I put in, I was just not a natural.

    Love karate. Love everything about it. Gave it a few years. Got 70% of way to blackbelt, but could not stop over thinking my moves.

    Love cycling, but could never keep up with the group and speed was never great. I am a plodder.

    Am I alone? Do you love something that you are not great at? Or if you love something are you just going to make it happen?

    I love music and everything music related, but I can't sing or play an instrument, my brain can't compute learning either.

    Often you love the things that you are not good at...
    If something is a challenge that can often be where the enjoyment is...of course some ppl do love the things they are good at too...
