> in almost every case the passionate ones will be better
My experience has not borne this out, either in development (which I've been doing professionally for almost 20 years) or in music (which I've been doing amateur-ly all my life). Passion is a very weak indicator of skill, community involvement is even weaker
- DustinOfDenver 11y agoInteresting take - How does one maintain Passion about something they are not good (or improving) at? I get that, day one a musician does not have the skills, but would they maintain that passion if they were not getting better? Passion overtime + participation = improving knowledge. A new person who is passionate, will quickly outpace the person who is not.
