Growing up, probably like most of you, I always wondered if I was going to be special at something. I was told I was special many times by teachers, parents, grandparents, and other relatives (admittedly sometimes mockingly). However, deep down inside, I really wondered, if I was special at anything, because it certainly did not seem like it.
I would try all sorts of things hoping I would be naturally talented in it. Throughout school, I tried baseball, hockey, soccer, guitar, tennis, marketing, business, math, science, English, French, writing, film making and countless other things. Yet, in each one of them I found the same situation: I was not special at it, and it would take really hard work to be so.
