Anybody "normal" can reach a decent mastery at anything given the proper amount of work. Some people need less work than others because they learn faster. However, more often than not, people who are very good at something threw an incredible amount of time at it. An amount far greater than anybody is willing to spare. You're gifted when you reach levels that only few other human beings can. When you "suck" at something, you're just not trying hard enough.
