I TRIED and FAILED at the violin for 10 years. I simply don't have the talent for it. I will stick to jewelry making.
According to the story, Ronstadt fixed the woman with a steely stare and said, 'Really? Would you practice five hours a day, seven days a week, for twenty years?'
Barring a disability, anyone can learn to do anything. It simply takes work.
