If you're dedicated and have fun with it, it doesn't seem that tough. Once you have a couple of years and you know how to play in at least third position, have a good intonation, have a good ear, and can do some sort of vibrato, it's not that hard. Well, at least not for me. I've been playing for a little while. Learning how to play many songs only by ear makes things easier, too.
