I suppose the most common situation is that if you never get comfortable with a subject or discipline, or whatever, that you won't enjoy it so you won't try to spend 10,000 hours trying to become an proficient at it. You will, presumably, find something for which you have more aptitude, before committing such time.

Of course it's also a fact that an awful lot of dreck is published and consumed, and an awful lot of people seem to really like it.
So there ya go.
