We are easily fooled by stunning images of famous and talented people on the Internet. These photos make us believe that they have been given priority since birth.

The heroes and villains produced by Pixar are the best proof. While many of them are born with special skills that distinguish them from ordinary people, some develop them later in life. However, all of those characters are hard-working no matter what.
