It's a self-enhancing loop - you enjoy something because it comes naturally, be it sport or mental activity, so you keep doing it, find joy at improving yourself, competing with others etc. Now imagine the opposite, the results are exactly... opposite. We all have high potential, most of us never come closer to reaching it 100%, but to think we are all equal in our skills from birth is a bit naive and definitely not true, as experienced by probably everybody during their lifetime. Life ain't fair since the start, we can work hard at overcoming our limits, and that's all great. But so far if 2 people put in same amount of effort, the ones with better genes always wins.
