Sometimes after a concert someone will say to me "I wish I could play that, lucky you to be so talented!" And I have to find a way to point out it's not luck but decades of practice. Without pointing out that they could be this good too if they were willing to do the work. | |

Depending on culture, it apparently isn't always considered rude to do something else besides saying some form of 'thankyou' :) | |
