Hi, everyone!
There's something I have always asked myself but never really discussed with that much people, so I thought about sharing this with you guys here. I hope this is the right section to post this in. :victory:
So here we go,
I have a friend who is very determined when she has set her mind on something she wants to do. For example 2 years ago, she said she wanted to start drawing manga and at first, her drawings weren't that good. But just after 3 months or so her drawings became like this:

Obviously today, she is able to draw better than this.
The same goes for other things she said she was interested in. Just within a couple of weeks or months she was able to do it. And the weird thing is nobody taught her! She just did it on her own. I'm certain that she does not take lessons or whatever for all her hobbies, cause her family is not that rich and she usually doesn't even tell her parents about her wishes, since she knows that they can't afford it. :puppydog:
Today she just told me that she wanted to learn how to play the piano/keyboard without any piano lessons and learning to play it by ear. I really wonder what it is that makes her accomplish all those things. Of course it is practice. But is there also some kinda talent that's in her or is it rather her determination?
Please share your opinion on this, because I'm really curious of what other people think about this.
