This talk is using "feel good about yourself" playbook, that's why it is the most viewed one.
- You cannot succeed unless you try. ( This is misinterpreted by average joe as "if I believe/try enough I will succeed, if not I didn't try enough )
- If you are a failure, it is not your fault. ( This one is the basic blame the system playbook )
Examples of exceptional people chosen specifically, Sharespeare, The Dancer, etc. Everybody thinks they have some undiscovered talent, nobody wants to be the average.
There will be some exceptional people, and with current schooling some exceptional talent will be lost, but it is much better than having less than average educated majority.
