You get better at something by learning and practising. Sounds so dumb and simplistic and obvious, but it amazes me how difficult people find it to truly accept and internalise this.
Shit at cooking? You can improve.
Shit at talking? You can improve.
Shit as a friend/spouse/parent? You can improve.
Shit at reining in your emotions? You can improve.
You could literally practice to be a funnier person if you wanted.
I guess this is now popularised as “growth mindset”.

Learning the growth mindset in my early 20s drastically changed my life for the better.
