I'm Talentless?

[Anonymous]

The title says it all; I have no skills or talents, I'm not good at anything. Trust me, I've searched and tried since I was little. I've done gymnastics, volleyball, basketball, orchestra, ballet, horse-back riding, art, comedy, singing, and probably other stuff I forgot all about. It's been so many years, and I still don't have anything I'm good at.
I know lots of people who are so very talented at things, like my friends who can sing beautifully, play instruments, do amazing art, or those aquaintences I've met who have won horse riding competitions and such. Heck, I have one friend who cooks like Gordon Ramsay! (Plz don't hate me, Ramsay).
All I've ever really done is read a bunch of books and draw real bad art, and of course I know that you can't become talented overnight or anything; I just want to know if I'm good or going to be remotely good at anything at all. I wish I knew for sure so I know whether to keep my hopes up or not.
I feel so useless not having any skill or talent. It almost feels as if I have no purpose here at all, no way of contributing to anyone or anything. I'm not sure what to do.

You can't force a talent and you seem to be doing just that. "Oh lets see if im a good cook!" *cooks a few times, its shit, gives up* "oh maybe im good at lifting weights"
*goes to the gym. Misses a few lifts. Sees everyones a lot stronger. Gives up.*
No.
you're not giving enough time. Just do what you enjoy. Just that. Switch and tey new stuff, but not in order to check your performance, but to see if you like it. Keep doing what you do because youlike it. 99.9% of talent is not talent, just passion combined with will and hard work.

Well, thank you, for that :) I'm still exploring a few things i have interest in, yet I don't seem to be getting that all much further in the process. But I won't give up on trying to get somewhat more better at those subjects :) thank you very much

[JustCallMeLeon]

Alright. Just remember 2 things. Do it because you like it. Never be jealous. Everyones different.

You sound a little lost. But you know it doesn't matter how good you are at something really... I think we all want to be the best at something but it would be an empty victory if you didn't have to fight for it. Anyway I think that if you found something you really liked and really wanted to do you wouldn't mind so much if you weren't the best... you would do it because you loved it

[Asker]

I am lost in a few ways ^^;; Thank you, I'll keep my heart open to anything in the future :D

[Puppyz123]

you just haven't found the right one. Sometimes it take people longer than others to find their talents.

[Asker]

Thank you, I'll keep searching :)

[HonestGirlAlways]

I don't have any talents either and it's okay hahahhah

[Asker]

I'm sure you'll find yours ^>^

Well I don't agree because I believe that everyone on this planet have something special, something that not everyone can see it as special, something maybe in your case it's still deep inside and you need to dig more to find it out really and I'm sure that there are people who will enjoy your talent, starting from your beloved parents.

[Asker]

I'd love to believe that as well :) I really appreciate this, thank you a lot for your opinion :D

[WiseTurtle]

a little cheering up is a pleasure for me :) Have a good luck finding it :)

[Asker]

Thank you very much for brightening me up a bit :D Thank you

[WiseTurtle]

Thank you too 😁

If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. 😇😇

[Asker]

That's very motivating, thank you :)

[Superchick1234]

You probably just haven't found it yet.

[Asker]

I hope that's the case ^_^;;

[IdkSomethingRandom]

most people aren't talented in this life.

[Asker]
