Reminds me of how people will buy all sorts of expensive equipment and costly supplies for something like photography or painting, then do hardly anything with them, because they think the talent should just magically appear.
As compared to those with some actual talent or ambition, who will sketch or doodle on any available surface with anything at hand.
One of my sons is that way. A lot of things come easy for him, so he expects everything he tries to come easy. If something doesn’t come easy, he tends to give it up.
