"Because everybody is good at something."
nobody is good at everything.
everyone has a different amount of skill and potential.
not all skills can be measured.
the amount of skill and potential someone has is, or could be, constantly changing.
not everyone is good at something.
for example, i have zero "useful" skills.
critical thinking. overthinking. more like an addiction. the more i do it, the worse off i get.
35 years old and do not know how to cook, fix the car, fix the house. almost zero positive relationships my entire "life".
this, despite a BA in cognitive science and AA in Accounting.
all the jobs that i have had were minimum wage type.
all the jobs that i qualify for, all the other ghetto lil riffraff are competing with me for. many of them have fewer than six personality disorders. many of them got canned/fired/made redundant fewer than three times.
after ignoring physicists, engineers, and mathematicians, i am relatively good at math. however, that is not "useful".
yes i am creative sometimes. but that is often a really bad thing, in that i do not fit in to precious lil society. and rarely a good thing. and when it is good, it is just slightly good.
