I seriously don't think I do. I can't sing, dance, act, talk well to pll, make ppl laugh. I mean I can't do anything good. I asked my husband what he thought my talent was and he had to think for a minute. Then he first said, "being nice", then 2 seconds later said, "well no, being too nice is a downfall". I am a 'too nice of person', but it's not like that's would be a talent anywas. Then he said, "you listen well", and really I don't think of that as a talent either. I listen well only cuz I'm too nice to not listen. I mean how is that a talent? Do you have to have a talent? I want one, but I'm just not good at anything:(

I'm a good cook and a good mom, but nobody respects me for them or even notices. How is that really a talent? Aren't you supposed to be known for ur talents?

The talent is not your problem, its your confidence that lacks.

Everyone is good at something, and listening can be a talent, if it's used correctly. There really aren't a lot of people who even TRY to listen, much less do it well. Some people's talents are obvious - singing or dancing or athletics or things like that. But the average person can't do many of the "obvious" talents. The key is to find what we're good at and put it to good use. For example, if you're a good listener, maybe you would make a good therapist. Listening is an EXTREMELY important thing to do in that profession. And you could do a lot more good for the world than someone who can play basketball well.
So to answer your question, yes, everyone has a talent. But sometimes it is difficult to figure out what it is.

I either don't have a talent-or have not found it yet. Don't worry, the world needs some happy people that do nothing but enjoy life. Maybe your talent is making others feel good.

Well I'm sure if you weren't too nice, that would be a talent. As long as you don't let people walk all over you and speak up when you need to, that's a very good quality.

My talents? I am musically inclined, creative, a fast learner, and sometimes funny. :)

I believe everyone has a talent, it's just a matter of discovering what it is. Not all talents are obvious. Yes, there are people who are obviously talented, an artist, a writer, a musician. Then there are the not so obvious ones, (I do believe being a good listener is a talent), organizational skills, ability to visualize (can see in your minds eye), you can excell at math or reading, memorization skills, cooking, relating with children and so on. You just have to open your eyes. Everyone is good at something.

I think you shouldn't dwell on the fact that you can't come up with a talent, just focus on doing what you like doing rather than what you're good at. I think I know somewhat how you feel. Besides, you're probably good at lots and lots of things, you just haven't tried them yet. Keep looking, and have fun doing it!

It's possible you won't be blindingly brilliant at anything, and that's fine, too. Most people who are incredibly talented have huge gaps in other respects, so consider yourself multi-faceted without being a genius in anything. Also, you may not be naturally talented in something, but may have to work hard at improving yourself in some way to obtain a skill, not a talent. Whether a natural or not, a skill is something to be grateful for.

Im not sure either. Ive always wondered myself. I always thought it would be nice to be on a model show but they always want you to have some kind of talent. I cant sing or do cart wheels or anything like that. I sometimes can write a good poem, I love to write, but im not sure if thats considered a talent.
I think everyone might have something about them that is just as good as a talent.

I was in this postion months ago, until I found out I was really good at video editing. The thing is you will find your talent eventually. My boyfriend, can rap, write music, make music tracks, he can draw, he can do anything with video production, and he is the fastest learner I know. Being too nice can be a down fall, but maybe you have a talent of knowing how to take care of your family, or you see optimistically, or are you intelligent, being organized is a talent and running a household is one as well

Everyone has a talent of some kind. I don't doubt that you'll find yours eventually. It takes time. It took me 20 years...
