Don’t underestimate your ability

It’s easy to discount your abilities. When you truly love something, your prolonged experience can give you skills and knowledge that you don’t appreciate.
For example, I have a love for early 20th-century American pop culture. My brain is filled with facts and anecdotes about once-famous recording artists. I sometimes find myself under the impression that everybody knows who billy murry was, or is familiar with the song Ukulele Lady. But this isn’t common knowledge — it’s specialized.
