Fundamentally, Speedrunning is an exercise in patience and dedication. It's about setting goals and finding ways to achieve them and being willing to commit a lot of time and patience into getting there.

It helps to pick a game you like, but ultimately it's no different than picking a particular kind of skill or hobby and optimizing the heck out of it to be efficient and skilled.
