What do you want to get good at?
Right?
Most people stop at, I'm not good at this thing.
Okay, sure.

warmly to my chest is this.
You can't make a racehorse out of a pig.
but you can make a really fast pig.
And I think it is almost certainly true that my life is the answer to the question, what does a fast pig look like?

And once you accept, okay, I'm having a biological experience.
