How do you deal with those who become instant experts in their craft and surpass those who studied their entire lives? I don't the answer to that and I was wondering if the characters they surpass would deal with it. I don't know, it just seems annoying that anyone could just do in a few months or minutes what someone else practiced for God knows how long. I dson't know if that is realistic or I am just plain annoyed but seriously you may probably have to get a few years of practice before getting right. How do the rivals and other characters deal the characters that surpassed them?

It doesn't bother me. It's just life innit, some people are going to be better at you and have an instant knack for things where it might take myself forever. It's never bothered me in the slightest tbh. It has admittedly baffled me when someone can do something that I just can't get my head round but that's about it
Why would you waste the energy being annoyed about it? It gets you no where

Some things are just intuitive for some people. There's nothing you can do but keep working. I worked with a girl who, after about 5 years out of college had reached a management level in accounting, was rated in the top 3 for her rank, and more or less doubled her entry level salary. She was a logistics major and was never exposed to finance or accounting until a year after she started with the company - it just came easily to her. But, what can you do - these people are the vast minority.
Then again - a lot of people are also just generally observant, curious and tremendously good bullshitters (i.e. understand a few salient points/subjects then use embellishments to make themselves appear to be an expert).

I agree with Kelly. Thats the way it goes. Some people are just naturally better at certain things that others, theres nothing you can do about it so you just have to take it with a smile i guess. No point getting Jealous as thats just a sure fire way to put yourself in a bad mood..
