I'd enjoy your sleuthing more about what makes some folks feel empowered to get really good at something other than hard work. I believe Nat Young's mom had something to do with his success. She was always there for him. Always. In fact I don't remember any other parent showing up as much as she did when Nat surfed. And then you could ask what made Nat Young's mom feel empowered to know that showing up for her kid and letting him "water his passion" without reservation would be what would help get him in the green room so often. It's a worthy rabbit hole to go down for any of us.
