People don't generally accomplish something immensely creative or interesting by setting out to do so. Instead, they stumble upon that great idea after some amount of time spent pursuing their own curiosity. The process looks something like:<p>1. Do things that interest you<p>2. Follow the threads of those interesting things towards a deeper understanding of your domain<p>3. If you're so inclined, specialize further and repeat<p>4. With some combination of luck, perseverance, and time, you may become the "best" at something for a brief time, but either way you'll have learned a lot and pursued your own curiosity.
