remember you don't necessarily have to be good at things to do them. our brains sometimes get that out of order: it's often repeatedly doing a thing that makes you good at it. 'being good' isn't a permission slip required to start.

when people tell you to 'marry your best friend' they basically mean 'make sure you get along with your spouse' which, ok, but why don't more people just marry their actual best friend and use it as an excuse to live together and hang out and date whoever you want until you die
