It's an oldie from 2015, but I still think about it whenever people talk about being talented at something.

Im autistic and have abysmal muscle memory. I can't tie my shoes or unlock a door without looking closely. I still managed to get decent at the violin. If you enjoy a thing and really really want to learn it, and have the time and physical requirements, it's possible. It's also ok if being slower to learn than most others spoils it for you- that's why I stopped taking lessons at a certain point.

This meme kind of upset me because I tried and can't play piano because my brain can't use both hands how they are required to play piano.

People do have to be naturally talented to do certain things.
