Growing up, have you ever thought about what your talent is or rather, what your talents are? Ever wondered why you couldn’t dance as well as Amanda? Why you never won the talent show? So you tried chess, the math club, and the dance club, but still, for the life of you, couldn’t do anything naturally? So you gave up and labeled yourself talentless? Or, on the other hand, you might sing like a darn canary or shoot the bow and arrow like a true marksman, so you have no worries about your talents. Show off!
Naturally having the skill to do something that's difficult is called talent. But was everyone born with a talent that they can do effortlessly? Well, we don’t know. Take a look at America’s Got Talent, for example. Based on this show, we would be inclined to think that some talents are better than others… but is that fair? Isn't "talent" always spelled T-A-L-E-N-T? Try telling that to Simon Cowell!
Well, there's good news for those who think they're talentless. Just as a pregnant woman can’t see her toes (without much effort), the same is true for talents. Sometimes, you have to put a little extra effort into seeing or finding them.
So, do you think that you have a secret talent? You’re in the right place. Take this quiz to find out what your secret talent is.
