Title: Do You Believe in Talents?
Post by: Cbsteffen on December 07, 2015, 06:31:17 pm
I certainly don't. According to my definition, a talent is an ability that literally only one person in the world has ever had, and that's impossible, so I refuse to believe in talents.

Yes. Not sure why you feel the need to redefine the word "talent", but your definition is not the actual meaning of the word.

Everyone has a talent or something they are good at.  I wish I could sing, dance and draw but I don't have those talents unfortunately.

It really doesn't matter if YOU believe in it or not.  The word TALENT means an ability to do something well.  And obviously there are billions of people with billions of talents.

I believe in talents.  Some people have musical talent, artistic talent.  I have baking-cookies talent.

I believe each and every one of us has"talents".  It just depends on what they are.

Of course people have talent.
Look at the artists, not everyone can do that, draw like that.  Even if you take lessons, that talent is just inside some people.  Same with most of the arts.  Everyone has talents, you just need to find out what you are good at.

My brother is musically inclined, he can hear something & just play it on the piano & he has never had lessons, just picked it up.  Not everyone can do that.  People do have talents.

Then there are the Asperger people who truly have unique talents. Not all of them, but the few that do are absolutely amazing.

Well...............

Anything that I CAN'T do, I consider that talent. For instance, I can't sing...but there are millions of singers out of billions on the planet, but only thousands (maybe hundreds) make it in the business. I still consider that talent because.....I CAN'T DO IT...I can't do gymnastics, play basketball, surf, juggle, run track, ice skate, act...the list go's on and on. I can't do it, therefore in my opinion, its talent.

My dictionary defines talent as a "natural aptitude or skill".  I totally believe in talents and have several.  Everyone has something.  :glasses-nerdy:

God gives everyone talents and gifts, some people use them to serve the world, some people use them to serve the devil but God's choice is for us to use them for his Kingdom :heart:

Everyone has been given a personal talent.  Some people are fortunate to learn what their talent is and to make the best of it.  Some people just never learn what talent they behold.  Some people know their talent and then lose it because they don't use it.

I think if people don't have talents, they can learned to be a talent

If that is the definition, it is certainly limiting....

   I believe in talents. Some people are "genius". No doubt about it!

I think talent implies something someone is particularly good at. I dont know that i can argue everyone has a talent, but at least some people do and some are more talented than others!

I believe there is a certain amount of skill you can accumulate to become a professional in a craft.

I believe on talent.  There are a lot of thing you do that people cannot do, and there are a lot of things people do that you cannot.  :)
