That would be incorrect. Many intelligent people don't see how stupid most
people are.

You mean, they'd give up because they can't do it, and go off and do
something they're not too stupid to do.

Nonsense. You were entertaining yourself, which is more than what most
people are capable of.

Condoleezza Rice was recently on an interview I saw. She said she wanted to
play the concert piano when she was young. When she was 15 or so, she went
somewhere and saw 8-year-olds sight-reading music and playing it better than
she could after months of practice. So she figured she'd need a different
career.
I don't think she made a bad choice.
If you enjoy it, then you're good enough at it. I played music for years in
school, and I hated it. Be happy you've found something you can enjoy
practicing even if you aren't a natural at it.
