Talent Is a Myth — Aptitude, Obsession, and the Price of Exceptional
from The Daily Podcast with Jonathan Doyle
What separates Mozart, Da Vinci and Einstein from everyone else? Not the magical thing we call talent. Jonathan Doyle on the more mundane and more demanding truth: everyone develops aptitudes — through accidents of birth, family, and experience — and the exceptional are simply those who become obsessed with theirs. The cost of living that way is real: people will think you're unhinged. That's the price tag of admission."There are no shortcuts. That is the price tag of admission." — Subscribe to The Daily Podcast with Jonathan Doyle for a new episode every day. Corporate speaking and executive coaching enquiries: jonathandoyle.co.
