Square Wheels Posted April 22, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 22, 2016 I was pretty good at carpentry. I felt I had a feel for the grain of the wood I was working with, but aside from that, I don't think so. I was OK at guitar when I was a kid. Running is always hard, and cycling isn't too much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted April 22, 2016 Share #2 Posted April 22, 2016 Cooking. My sense of taste and smell is quite sharp. My creativeness takes on a new form with food. I can't paint, but I can create foody things that impress the people around me. Use of flavor and color is a way to be artsy with a plate. I was never a natural at biking. I just got better with lots of paractice, drive and perseverance. I can be very disciplined about training, but that doesn't make me a natural. Just makes me a hard worker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentonMakes Posted April 22, 2016 Share #3 Posted April 22, 2016 I have a bit of a musical ear. I have always been able to hear a song and pretty quickly pick out the melody and play it on the piano. Nowadays I can generally identify the chords too, but I think that ability has developed from years of listening to music, not necessarily "natural".

Zephyr Posted April 22, 2016 Share #7 Posted April 22, 2016 I am a natural story teller. There is always one in our family and I am this generations. I can hold a room for hours with tales of our family. Some of them even true. . In the pre-written word era, I would have been the keeper of the spoken history. I am also pretty coordinated, and while by no means a 'gifted athlete" I played Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Volleyball and Swimming at a competitive level and Golf and Tennis for fun, all came fairly easily to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love stories! My dad was a natural storyteller, so I grew up with stories. When my son was little I would ready to him and his dad would tell him a story about a broken car, if he tried to read to him my son would say "no dad, talk me a story!" My son is also a natural story teller and I love to listen to him! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted April 23, 2016 Share #30 Posted April 23, 2016 I'm good at dealing with things that require me to externalize my thinking. Robot arms, cameras, radio control objects etc. In most cases, once the basics are practiced I no longer think about controlling them but am more likely to be them. When I raced, I was never a driver in a car........I was the car and all the feelings that came with it. Perhaps Wilbur and the other pilots here can explain that better because I think that they learn to do that as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
