Maybe you've given up on learning to speak French, or fix a car, or identify a wine just by smelling it. Maybe you don't think you have time to learn how to pick out which bird is at your feeder, or how to properly use a knife in the kitchen, or how to knit. What about appreciating The Odyssey or Nietzsche?
