Yes. That's right! But I think it is hard to find out one's talent. I don't know my talent. It seems that I am weak at everythings I do. And it seems that there is not a way to find out one's talent easily. You know, sometimes, interest doesn't necessarily mean talent.

I have many talents... Some may say im so proud... but actually because of my talents, i learned to be DOWN TO EARTH... I love to sing and my talent is singing. I can sing in high pitch and also low pitch do improvisation like RnB and ballad song. I won several idol competition when i was in college 1st year and karaoke competition during our new year party. I dont take any vocal lesson before... i practice it bymyself, just by listening famous singer album for many times, try to breath properly by looking at their videos in youtube, and how they make such vibration. If i have time, i do really wanna join vocal lesson by this mid of the year. I know how to draw and making mozaic. From drawing, i won several contest when i was in kindergarten, elementary, and junior high. I actually love to design clothes- or fashion design... I love fashion. im gonna design for Indonesian student tshirt for our independence day this year. I love to learn many foreign languages. Instead english, I know basic conversation in Korean "hangukmal", japanese "niponggo", taiwanese "mandarin", filipino "bisaya" and little "tagalog". and my main language is Indonesian, because im born indonesian. If i meet person from those country, i can easily get closer to them and learn more languages from them... and its FREE. I love to cook cake. Im pretty well know how to cook sponge cake and brownies. im learning how to make tiramissu, but i have no time for it. Maybe when i go back to my hometown... hopefully. I love to play piano and violin. I know how to play basic piano, organ, and keyboard.Im learning violin. im just starting it december 2008, and i just join some group performance in end of december. Im quiet faster to learn particular music instrument... Im still beginner, but i wonder, my teacher allow me to learn very difficult pieces... for me its difficult at first, but i know i can strive with it. I love to write... i like to make short story and journals. Thats the reason why i love to write in mylot.com. Since there will be person who read my writing, and its paid... so my words are really worthy! Im still learning english- im not good in english. Thats why, maybe my words are little messy for its use. anyway, i always give my best idea in every discussion and comments. Have a nice day.

Funny...a couple of mos ago I was just wondering about what talent I have. I watch my 2 young daughters develop and enjoy their talents as artists. I was like what the heck is my talent? Then one day my older daughter asked me to teach her how to make a poem for her homework. I was like OMG! that's it. That's what i'm good at i thought. I used to make a lot of short and long poems since grammar school. Why did i stop? Too occupied with a lot of things in my family life I guess. I then showed my poem collection to my daughter years ago. She was impressed and proud of Mommy :)

Hi Gicolet, I can somehow relate to you. During my teen years, I was very active with some Extra Curricular Activities. When I became a mommy, my talents took a back seat to give way to the springing talents that my twin daughters could have and develop. They are enrolled in Singing Lessons. I bought them sketch pads to develop their talents in drawing. One of the twins already has her own folder in my computer and she is writing a children's novel! I am really excited!!! At school, they are often their class representatives in Story Telling Contests and Dance Activities. I can see more of myself when I look at them... Remembering the time when I was just like them...

Yes Ajith you are right. Every one has some talent.Each person having some good thing in himself/herself and teach us new thing.I always learn new things from each person, always try to find out good talent from others. About me i very good in handicraft, actually i m a moody person so i do drawing, singing, making best from waste, good communication these are all my talents and its depends on mood. For others, i always admire others talent and tell them they are having this to increase their conficence.

To be frank, I do not confirm what i am good at.If i must find out one,even if the learning ability of the language is not too bad.I remembered that I have understood a dialect after I have lived in another city for one months. But i don't think the ability is very good.

I think it is great that you have a talent for playing chess. I learned my talent while in school. I have a talent for writing. It was first discovered when I was in grade 4. I have kept it alive all these years by practicing and writing various articles, poetry, and books.

For me, my talent is in music. I feel that music is just such a unique way to express oneself, a situation, an experience etc. with words (lyrics) coupled together with a melody. And coupled with that talent and gift that God has given to me is the passion to learn musical instruments to "make" music. I started learning the piano since I was a child, but I stopped at Grade 7 because I felt that I was being restricted to all those piano pieces, scales and sight reading for the exams that I hardly have time to learn classical or contemporary music out of the exam material. Good thing that I stopped, because later I felt much more free to play the piano how I want to play it. When I volunteered to play for church, little did I know that it would be the stepping stone for me to develop my skills and talent in playing by ear. Now I can play almost any tune that I have heard before (provided it's not too hard, of course! ). But something inside me told me that learning one musical instrument is not enough, so I started taking up guitar from my friends. I did struggle at first with all the fingering and pain (pressing those steel nylon strings), but eventually I mastered the basics and I can strum quite efficiently. Now I'm still learning to master plucking, but it's really difficult as the fingering needs a lot of coordination. In the future, I'm planning to learn the violin and maybe the saxophone.....

It's real nice to have a talent and a talent can be anything that you are good at. I can type so I guess I consider this to be a talent! I also love computers, taking them apart and reassembling them and so forth, I guess this is also a talent. It's great that you have a talent in chess! I have played chess in the past and I guess I didn't have the patience for it. By receiving awards for your chess playing, this shows that you are really talented in this area. I also love writing and I guess this is a talent although I don't have a book published or anything like that. I would love to publish a book one day! Andrew

When I was a kid I had a talent for drawing. I don't know about it now as I haven't practiced often, but it shows that I still have some of the skills left and all I need to do is nurture them a bit. Another talent I have is photography. This has not been a natural talent; I learned from looking at other people's photographs and judging their merits and applying them to my own picture-taking. I'm currently working on learning the piano. I can play only the basics, but I'm not good enough at playing by ear yet.
