You Got Talent

If you could pick a new talent, what would it be?  Something that you’ve always wished you where able to do.  Not a super power or anything.  A real, skill that could be practical or maybe just for fun.  I know some people would like to know how to play a musical instrument.  Others might want to know a new language, have skills to build/fix things or become an artist.  If you could pick one, what would you want to know?  My Dad is a carpenter by trade and as I get older, I have a greater appreciation for the artistry of what he does.  My choice would be to be able to be a better handyman or woodworker.  To be able to build things for my house would be fantastic!  I’m not looking to build a new house, but the skills needed to make and finish tables and cabinets.

Then needs to ask yourself.  Why don’t I have this skill?  Mostly, it would take time and money.  Sometimes we lack one or both of those to get a new talent started.  You almost have to look at it like an investment.  Maybe I could start with something small.  Like a stand for my dog’s water bowl.  I think I could handle that.

What talent would you like to have?
