  • A lot of bending ability comes down to personality. Being adaptable, forceful, consuming, or evasive makes you good at bending. Being rigid, timid, pacifist, or stubborn makes you bad at bending. Katara sucked at waterbending when the show started because she was a stickler for the rules. She always had a nurturing element, but she also had to learn to go with the flow. Toph was a child prodigy at earthbending because she has an incredibly forceful personality. But it’s not something her parents taught her, she had to cultivate it within herself.

    It is the duty of the Avatar to embody the wisdom of each element and to undergo the personal growth to be able to see things from everyone’s perspective. Korra’s situation is basically normal. Aang is the weirdo for being a timid pacifist who struggled with earth and fire.
