I am sure that you have more talents than just writing, maybe you just haven't found them yet. I have several talents, for one, I am a good problem solver and organizer. Not everyone can cram as much into one day as I seem to manage to do and still find time at the end of the day to read and relax. Second, I am a good cook, I just dod not have the opportunity to cook as I really like to because my husband is an extremely picky eater. Third, I seem to have a knack at growing plants that I only began to discover about a year ago. I knew I could keep plants alive, but I really wasn't so confident that I could get things to grow as well as I have found that I can. And fourth, I love to write and think that I am pretty good at it. I am not and have never really been an athletic person, I do like to dance, just not in front of anyone. I also like to sing, but I only do that in front of my family. They all say that I have a nice voice, but I know that my voice is nothing like it once was.

Well, talent is too strong a word for me. I like doing some stuff, especially sports and video games, but I can't say I'm even good at them because I have seen so many videos of performances on internet done by really good players. They are like magic and compared to them my skill is kind of funny. However, I enjoy my participation in these stuff. Maybe I suck, so what, I will keeping doing them because I feel happy. That's what it matters.

know what... i haven't really given much thought about talents... my talents if there's any. -lol- let's see if i have anything at all and just try to name possible ones like you did. -lol- singing... hmmnn. i don't have a powerful voice, mine is soft but i can follow a tune. i do sing. i love singing. nobody has ever complained yet but i don't think of it as my talent. dancing... a big no. -lol- i wanted to learn some steps though. and i don't play a musical instrument either. hehe i'm not sporty and my games are limited to the board games. -lol- cooking... hmmnn. perhaps that's one. i have received sincere praises for my efforts on cooking before. -lol- so it could be a talent or skill i have. let's see if i could dig up some more... before, i used to draw in school. but it didn't draw much interest after i got hooked in reading and writing. so that skill was never honed. writing... yes, perhaps i have a little. i love writing as much as reading. years ago, i wrote a poem for my nephew that he used as his declamation piece. with my coaching and writing as well as his talent of course, he bagged first prize. -lol- photography... it's something that i love doing also but didn't have much time to exercise. but whenever i do, i like what i produce. but i don't think it's good enough for a talent. i'm running out of ideas. -lol- but perhaps i have a little of some of the talents i mentioned above. and i'll just settle with that.

oh actually i was able to do practice it while i was still studying. but i stop it. but i can still write few. i save them to my file and read them sometimes. it was actually my mon who found out that i have skills in writing stories, way back elementary days when i wrote a lot of stories, and my mother was always angry coz she need to buy more notebook for me coz my notebook in my subject class was always full due to my story. then i always told her that i cant stop it.. coz i have lots of stories in my head and it keeps on playing inside my head that i feel like im having head ache if im not going to release it.. but then, my mother enjoyed reading them every time im done with the whole story. though she still insist that i should stop it.. lol...

Some of the best chefs in the world are actually men. I heard that many men are good at cooking because of their enhanced sense of taste.

Ago, when I age primary school, I like draw everything. every day I draw and drawing. My think i have talent to be Painter. But while I saw my picture, my friend or any body see will always say, "its bad". So, I change and I think, drawing not my talent. When, I at high school, My parents give me a camera. I like it. I take some pict and show my friend an any body see will always say. "its bad". So, I change and I think, "I'm not have talent",since that I write what my think and what my feel. Everything be my idea for write. One day, I show my any post to my friend and any body see wil always say, "woww ... you great. I like itu" Since that, I think my talent is write and writing and I want be author

probably every single person has a talent of their own.if sleeping all day long is what a person can do most,thats also a talent,if someone is good for nothing then that is also a big talent.so no one is born without any talent.as far as i am concerned, i can remember only two.i can sing well and have taken part in many competitions and stage shows.and i have a great affinity for soccer.i am a dye hard soccer fan and cant live without it.so i play that game pretty well too.thats what my talents are as of now.it may change as time passes.thank you

hi my talent is writing,it is my passion and I am also a good listener., I used to work as a nurses aId and I 'learned to be compAssionate And how to listen to others so many are lonely and just need someone to listen to them for a bit. So I guess writing fiction aNd poetry, and helping others where I can are my only real talents.

My talent is singing. I didn't study music but people say that I have a good voice. Some also hire me to sing. If I would make singing as my career, I think I would have a decent income. If something bad happens to my full-time office job, I'll have something to fall back to.

Going down the list that you have mentioned, yup i can sing, though my voice isn't loud enough. i can't dance. my mom's a great cook but apparently i haven't inherited any of that. sports-wise yeah i'm pretty good at whatever i play, probably cos i always give my best shot and am quite agile. lastly, i'm not too expressive with words. alright, now for my talent. so far haven't discovered any particularly outstanding ones, but i do excel in my studies and like what i mentioned, any sports activity. i like music too, i play the piano and am a student conductor in my school band. i learn fast. but it seems i'm not passionate enough in anything to really develop any of these abilities. so i'm pretty much a jack of all trades, but master of none. i hope i am able to discover my talent soon! Cheers*~

Well I am an average success in almost every field, I can cook good and tasty food, I do a little of hand embroidery and stitch some simple attires, I can sing and love to do it only when I am alone, I teach children who are weak in their school subjects, I do gardening when I have nothing else to do. I love to do art work and know to do painting and drawing also. I have no domestic help and so do all the household work myself at home, I had also been working as a teacher.

I suppose it just goes down to how lucky you are; some people manage to be fairly good at loads of things whereas some people are bad at most things but extremely amazing at a few things.

I believe that talent is something that comes to light when someone else reminds that to us.Nobody can recognise their talents if others do not appreciate that.Secondly as far as I am concerned ,I am a good singer and have participated in many talent shows in India But I am good in the studies too.I am soon to be a telecom engineer.So as far as I can say or praise myself ,Its not god.All I can say that I am multi talented as I can draw very good portraits,can cook variety of food dishes and of all I have learned to respect others talent and their ability and I have quitted my Ego.More down to earth feeling makes me different from others now.To this add good communication skills.So I would suggest try to find all positives that you have in you and try to maximize them.that will your true talent

Writing is a nice talent. Perhaps you will be a writer one day:) I can't sing or dance, too. I think my talents are painting and cooking. I like both of them. They are also my hobbies. I love China
