Although this thread was highly controversial it did bring up some interesting concepts
It was controversial for 3 reasons.
The first reason is because the nature vs nurture debate is still not solved and the OP tried to say, you should give up if you are not talented, as if it was fact.
The second reason is because the OP says you should evaluate whether or not you are talented by comparing yourself to others. This is viewed as a bad thing to do in itself. Not only that but he judges this on play count.
The third reason is because the OP values extrinsic success more than the journey to being the best. In the OP's eyes a person who works their hardest only to come second is a failure compared to the more talented person who comes first who didn't try their best. This is not a winners attitude
