What are your Talents?
By Lee-Anne Peters
Many people feel like they aren’t here
for a reason and that there is nothing ‘special’ that they can do. I hear this
all the time, and it is sad for me to witness such a stifling of creativity and
imagination in our world. There are many tools of entertainment that are completely
squashing this and it’s time for us all to acknowledge our gifts and talents
and to also support those who do self fund new ideas, show initiative and use
their imagination!
I feel we all have some sort of talent or
gift. This won’t necessarily be something ‘stereotypical’ like something
artistic – you can look further than
that!
Your talent may be something that you can
physically do, it may be your listening ear, your ability to say the right
words at the right time. Perhaps for you it is your caring nature, your ability
to remember things easily, your skill with numbers or perhaps something else.
How do you see the world? What is your gift that you can contribute? |
If you are unsure what your talent may
be, then perhaps reflect back to your childhood and what worked easily for you,
what did you enjoy or love to do? Often what we loved in childhood became
pushed aside thanks to other tasks and duties or perhaps it wasn’t nourished by
those around us. We enter into adulthood the talent becomes forgotten and then
we roll on with life, and the cycle of working to pay the bills pushes to the
forefront.
Exercise: Spend some time reflecting on
what your talents or gifts are. Remember they may not even feel like a gift
right now – so look past that and into how certain things make you feel, bring
joy and motivate you.
Is there anything you can plan soon that
would have you start utilising your gift? Can you volunteer your time, start a
hobby or study further? Take steps to bring your passions to the forefront of
your life! The world needs you!
All my LOVE,
