Can crying be a talent?
Allow me to shock you that it could be because my mum said my brother and I cried a lot when we were babies although not as much as my sister did and then guess what!
We are singers and music lovers even if we're not perfect yet.
So I showcased my first talent when I was a baby but discovered and began to polish it when I was around 9 to 10 years, a time I remember clearly how my siblings and I would sing very well songs from the movies we saw on TV.
I knew from then that I had it in me to get my singing abilities to a better level, it was a slow process but I definitely don't sound like I did sound last year and that is all thanks to setting my mind on being a better singer.
I became a part of singing group that went for different music competitions, I won't write about my singing talent without mentioning this amazing group because they helped polish my voice way faster than I would have done on my own.
While I try to improve my voice, I got to make honours with it as we won a lot of competition and got some fans for ourselves (it felt good, no doubt) and today, my voice is better and I'm planning on making it even better.
Thanks to the opportunities provided on Hive, I've been making use of my voice to earn some money while I try out new challenges with my voice. This talent was found early enough and I'm so grateful I have it and I found it at the time I did.
Who else thinks writing could be an inbuilt talent?
I think so and I'm one with such talent, I can't remember learning how to write (of course, I learnt how to spell words and pronounce the alphabets haha) but how I made sentences from events that are yet to happen or would never happen must be a talent.
I had some books I wrote so many stories on when I was around the age of 10, I would write stories when I'm bored in class or have nothing to do at home... When I don't write, I say them to my siblings... I still remember how much they enjoy my stories telling and I knew I was born to do it 😂
My first time blogging felt like a compulsion so I had a hard time blending in at first but in no time, it seemed like I had been there for a very long time. Nowadays, I won't lie that I don't have my difficult days but there are more easier days to create contents than difficult days and that is because it's a talent I've built on over time.
If learning fast is a talent, I discovered this one very early too
I rarely find it difficult to learn a new word, a new sentence, a new subject, a new technique, a new habit and most importantly, I rarely find it difficult to operate a new equipment especially phones back then.
Even now, I learn fast when I put my mind to it and I think it's a talent of mine too. I was around 9 when dad first gave me a phone to contact him while he was away for work and I remember doing a lot of other things with the phone.
My parents had to make me skip two classes in school because I was that brilliant, learning fast was sure my thing. I don't have hard time blending in with new environments because I tend to learn how things work around in no time.
It's still very much a part of me now and as they say, learning never ends, so it's a talent that will continue for me with a lot of improvements for sure.
I know I have more talents, but maybe they are yet to be discovered or showcased.. Until then, I plan to work and grow these ones I do have because they make up who I am and most importantly, build my self esteem daily.
