I mostly have a knack for physics and engineering. And a bit of patience (that's the number one thing I see people crash for: they want to go down faster, but that implies having more dV to shed off - more than their engines can put off in the distance they are at now). But if you have none of those, there's three words that will get you there: willpower, practice, and training. (Mostly training yourself to be patient - my record touchdown, from orbit, is seven minutes from a 20k orbit). Also, what do you mean assistance technologies? Mechjeb? If SAS, you'd have to be a lunatic to try and land without SAS.
