Go, Learn!

Yes, you guys. Go and learn something. Consider it to be an order, a suggestion a request, just anything. Go and get yourself a hobby. Borrow it, buy it or produce it. But just be sure that you have something in you, that you're capable of doing without getting things messed up. I know how most of us think that our hidden talent is so hidden that even we haven't found it ourselves. Phew, story of every life!
But I'll tell you in a second why getting a pastime is so important.
First off I'd like to ask you people some questions. How many times have you thought to yourself of how useless and incapable you are? How many times have you thought of acquiring a new skill? How many times have you thought of making use of a talent that you're naturally gifted with?
It isn't long ago that I was listening to a professor of a university in the States, who was talking about people, who never get to know what talent breeds in them. He flashed light over how people think talent is knowing how to play the guitar, doing ballet, singing and dancing. Which he said, were in reality, not talents at all. They are skills. Talent is something that you're born with. That you already have in you. That are God-given. On the contrary, a skill is something that you learn and perfect with time and practice. He extended by explaining how ballet-dancing is a skill but how graceful, seamless and flexible your bodily movement is, your talent. Ofcourse, practicing plays a big part too. But are you getting what I'm telling you here? Like, being born with a good voice is your talent. But singing melodiously is a skill because you acquire it either from learning or practicing.
So, what is a 'talent'? The answer is that anything that you can do that you don't see many people around you doing, is your talent! Being a good listener, a good observer, a fast learner, or even a good cleaner is your talent. Because not many have this in them. You didn't get it from anywhere, you just had it instilled in you.
Alright, so getting back to the point. I was claiming of how essential it is for you to develop a skill. Trust me, it is going to make you feel wanted, important and useful. You'll feel like you've been reborn. Not only will this widen your horizons but would keep you busy, as well. You'll feel less bored and can kill time being productive. Moreover, it's interesting of how renewing and rejuvenating the process of learning and creating can be. During this process of mastering the art of something, you never know, you might be able to find some more talents buried somewhere inside you. Fun fact, there are chances you may get into less trouble than usual because an activity will surely keep you employed and engaged and may save you from worldly skirmishes. How cool is that?
So, the meat and potato of this post is, to go to the piano class you always wanted to go to, learn the acrobatic ice-skating you always wanted to learn, take that painting class you forever wanted to take! Do what makes you feel like yourself. You are amazing and capable and beautiful and special. You're a unicorn, with your distinct powers and energies and skills and talents. You are sui generis!
Good Luck... This is me signing off..xoxo
