When you hear people's success stories, especially when it's regarding taking up a new skill, often times people will say they felt very confident that they would get to where they wanted to be. That they always knew they had that talent and if they just worked on it everything would fall into place.

Ok, well I have a pretty good feeling I'm not going to get where I want to be skill-wise...so do I get to stop waking up in the morning? No? C'mon man please.
