Is the concept of aptitude true? are we really inclined towards certain things or better at certain things? or is the lack of aptitude for something a lousy excuse for not trying hard enough? can everyone become a rocket scientist if they focus and put in enough effort.

I do believe some people are better at some things that others, it comes more naturally do them, like some people are just good at sketching , karate, maths etc
does working hard enough at anything mean we can become anything and everything i dont really think so. i think we are all cut out for different things.

why wouldnt it be true?

To the question that if everyone can become something by putting enough effort, answer may be ‘yes’ but here the word ‘enough’ has different magnitude for different people.

Like my drawing sucks big time but may be if I spend years as an artist’s student may be I’ll end up making something that a normal person will create in six months.
