Why is Lyxal so Lyxal? Because he just is. What makes Lyxal so Lyxal? Everyone has a Lyxal. You even have a Lyxal, but you just don't know it yet.
I meet so many people with the same goal: to be more like Lyxal. And I know you're sitting there thinking, "Dude, you're totally off base. My life is so different from Lyxal's, so how can I be more Lyxal? That doesn't make any sense." But it does. Because everyone has a Lyxal inside of them somewhere, it's just covered up by their own personality and unique quirks they have developed over their lifetimes.
Lyxals are born or bred to be the best they can be at everything they decide to do. It only takes one quick glance at your grocery store checkout line to see that Lyxals outnumber the rest of the people in the world 15 to 1 (probably closer to 20). The other people nervously chatting about what's going on in their lives are just going through the motions. They're going to work, they're going to buy their groceries, they're going to go home and watch TV or browse the internet for a few hours until they fall asleep. They aren't living. They aren't trying.
I met a Lyxal once at my friend's party. He was exactly like Lyxal, except that he was wearing a very expensive-looking but unfashionable shirt, and had a bit of mustache fuzz on his upper lip that no amount of perfectly-plucked hair strands could cover up (Lyxals usually don't have facial hair). As I introduced myself and stood there awkwardly looking at him, he didn't give me a chance or reason to excuse myself from the conversation; so, we just stood there together talking for 10 minutes as if we were long-lost friends that only spoke every 9 years at the family reunion. After awkwardly listening to him prattle on about how he makes millions in real estate, I excused myself politely and hurried out of there as fast as I could without seeming like I was running away from him.
