Birthday present

Learning enchanting is much like learning art—take drawing, for example.

For most, the initial drive to pick up a pencil comes from excitement.

Inspiration.

How many times have people seen a breathtaking piece of art and thought, "Holy shit, this is incredible!" or "I wish I could draw like that!"?

That sense of awe—the spark of curiosity—is what pushes people to start.

When someone first dives into a new skill, it feels like stepping into an uncharted world, filled with limitless possibilities. The thrill of rapid improvement—watching oneself go from scribbles to recognizable shapes—creates a rush of dopamine, a deeply satisfying sense of accomplishment.

And if someone happens to be a genius, that natural talent will propel them through the beginner phase faster than anyone else. It feels effortless. Progress comes in leaps and bounds.

But…

That thrill doesn't last forever.

Eventually, everyone hits a roadblock.
