I just figured out, that just because you are given an epic task, adventure, or cool mission that may have something to do with what you fully mastered or extremely talented at, does not mean you are able to deal it, or at least dealing in non-epic or sometimes traumatizing way.

For example, being good at science and mathematics does not make you crack the codes or defusing a time bomb.
Being good at English does not make me able to meet international officials.

Being good at redstone, does not make you good at real-life engineering.
Being good at real-time strategy games does not make me a real war commander. Besides some people may good at Total Annihilation, but not good at Starcraft or Command and Conquer.

Those things require certain expertise and study.


I know how to separate fiction and reality, but I am having the hard time taking a fiction way too seriously. I slowly hate it because it's kind of overly unrealistic, like "I heard about your gifted prodigy kid who won hundreds of science olympiad medals? How about you join us in investigating and stop the secret technology that will cause threat to humanity...?"
