Absolutely everyone is gifted.
Sometimes they just don't know how to utilize that gift/talent that they possess that is why they say they don't have any talent.
Some talents needs to be explored- and sometimes discovered by the person accidentally.
My friend discovered that she can be a good painter when she tried to draw some objects that her sister needs for school projects.
It was a rush project so my friend has no choice but to do it herself- till then she realize that she's good at it.

jaiho:
that is good a person could identify his painting skill through that. It is said in our epics that Hanuman (Anjaneya) was not aware of his flying skills. He was made known that he can fly over the sea and that made him fly to Lanka to meet Seethadevi who was captured by Ravana.
some of us have to be let known by others and a few others learn it from experience.
However one thing is important-never we should lose hope in life. If we stop trying that is acceptance of defeat.

yes, every one is gifted in one way or the other. there are some people who are good in marketing. some are good in servicing. some people are good in music. some are good in administration. it is for us to identify our talent and make use of the same in the respective field and make success. For example some of us may be good in writing poetry - then we should try in that area. we should not feel discouraged. It is also true God is making some of us intelligent , some of us not so.,
perseverance is the key to success.
is the key to success.

I agree with you ravisivan, every one is gifted in one way or another. Sometimes it's hard finding your niche and one might be frustrated,but don't give up!! I realized how much people are gifted when I was a Residential Manager of a group home for mentally challenged adults. People make fun of these individuals, but they all have something to offer. You don't have to be a professional writer, a professional painter or any profession, just do what you like to do the best and you'll find your niche. I haven't found my one niche, but I like to think of myself as a jack of all trades, but a master of none!! But I feel I'm gifted because I can do many things.

Hello prashu. It is well said that everyone is talented because in our daily life and work, we can find that when one is not good at one thing, he is usually good at some other fields. If they find their ability in some special field, they would not say that they are not worth anything. The most important step is for them to excavate their talents.

Hi prashu, You are right, we all bring something with us when we come into this world. There is a purpose for every life and everyone needs to accept that. Yes, there are those who feel that they have nothing to offer and often this is due to their upbringing, in any case it is completely untrue. As long as we are on this earth, our life has purpose and we will not be here one second longer, when our work here is finished. Blessings.

Yes every one has some god given quality, many are not aware of this, but when right time comes, it comes out, this is my experience , there is no need of cursing god or parents, one has to go by karma..

GOD at the time or moment of creation has devised every living being on earth to possess some kind of special merit .The possession of merit in excess make one greedy for more chances and opportunities to increase comforts.

Of course, everyone is gifted, but in various ways. Some people are talented in music, but they are forced to become engineers, solely for the purpose of earning a living. In this way, his talent remains undiscovered and unpolished. We never know what someone is good at until he exhibits the talent in front of us. Face it, bro, there are just too many things in this world that we don't know

Hi friend, each and every one is blessed with unique skills and talents, we must find it out and improve it to shine in our field, no one is waste or useless in god's creation, we must give up this kind of thoughts and find out our real value instead of blaming our parents and God

I do have same thinking. What we basically need to do is to discover ourselves at first. We should know ourselves best. That is a basic requirement. Happiness and contentment lies in the fact that you should know what you are gifted with rather than crying over what others are gifted with and perhaps you aren't. But then it is our human nature upon which we can only tend to develop control as getting complete hold of it is certainly not as easy as most of us think.

yes everyone is gifted and one must try to find out and realize their talents. It is sad that these people are cursing others for what is happening in their lives and it is ridiculous. Some people just know how to blame others for the bad things happening in their lives. They are just lazy to do something on their own. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

yeah..i do believe that.Einstein once said :i am not clever,i am curiuos.one of the most important object of our education i think is help us find what we really like.someone say: if the god close the door for you,he must open the window for you somewhere else.everybody is gifted.is you really interested in something,the only thing you obtain from it is joy,not tired.
it is so pity that i have not find where is my window.

hello,
Yes everyone is gifted, but it depends on the people , what they want to do in life, some are with immense talents, some with less, but if they use it in the right, then they will definitely succeed.

Everyone is really gifted. Everyone was given a unique blessing by God. This are what we know as our talents and capabilities. Some our gifted in music, some our gifted in sports, some in any other activities. Lets thanks God and our parents, as well as our teachers or mentors who helped as in discovering this talent.

I agree that we are all born with our talents, but not everyone of us develops their potencials. And many people blame others for something that only they can help. I know a young man who has thrown away several good opportunities in life and work only because he is too proud. Now noone wants to vouch for him so that he is on his own.

Hi there prashu,
That is right! Everybody has a hidden gift everybody can contribute they just have to find the right spot for them in this world by just cleaning up your surroundings you already have an effect in the world what more if you go to work apply for a job any job blue collar or labor, it is just that you have to push yourself in a direction that will get you a spot in this world because there is one for everybody or anyone.

Everyone is gifted with some skills. How they act in situations depends upon their ability. If they say every time nothing is possible they will not fit for anything. Some people have good skills but they did not know how to execute it. Right time by doing right work will leads to your destination.

We do - sometimes - feel so useless and nothing we could do anymore after a long struggling on something. I think it is a normal thing happened when we feel so tired - when we need some times to get some rest and feel how weak we are.
But when it went so bad - it doesn't mean that the person is going bad - we don't know how much he has tried to open and reopen their packages over and over again but it kept going failed.
They need a better self esteem - after what they have been through..

There isn't a single person that isn't gifted.Absolutely everyone if us is gifted in some way.Some of us are charismatic,some of us are good at writing,some of us are good at solving problems.
Well,I know how they feel.This is the feel you get after you tried numerous times to see what are your strong points,and failed to see.
Usually,the forte spots will be seen in a certain situation,it is hard to figure out on your own what are you best at.
Tell your friends not to hush,tell them to wait until a situation presents itself.And then they'll see.
