I completely agree with you. One of my favorite historical quotes comes from Albert Einstein who said, "Anyone of average intelligence is capable of learning and doing anything". I may have paraphrased it but I find this encouraging. As long as, god forbid, you are not mentally challenged in some way, you have a fully functioning mind, you can learn anything if you put your mind to work on it (th ehuman brain is a marvel). Some people may be natively more skilled for the task, it just may take you a bit more exposure to it.
I'm quoting kellie here not to single her out by any means... but to single out what she SAID that I've seen others post over and over.

Rebuilding these or any others... is a skill that must be learned, it isn't an art, The only way to get good at it is through practice and persistance. Many times, when learning a skill we will feel clumsy and we need to know that is natural and doesn't mean we aren't good at it, just that we don't have the experience we need yet. I believe everyone can learn any skill if they have an interest and choose to take the time.
Learning any skill will also help develop you in other areas that can make learning other new but similar skills even easier to pick up over time. This is why having a hobby is also so important, it helps us develop new skills in an area that we already have an interest in. The more skills you learn... the easier it then becomes to learn other new skills. Expanding our skill sets also has a positive impact on our jobs, making us more valuable in the job market.
I guess that there is one other thing to bring up... Don't fool yourself by saying you aren't good at something simply because you may have no interest in it... There is no reason to cut yourself down and say you are not good at it if it is really just because you have no interest. It is perfectly fine if you aren't interested in something... there are plenty of other skills out there and you don't have to put yourself down for not liking one of them just to give yourself and excuse to not perform a particular skill.
Always let your interests drive yourself to learn new skills.. if you feel clumsy at first, just know that it will pass as you develop experience with it.
