Let us first know what is talent. It is a skill or aptitude a person have.
It may be not easy to find our talent but it is definitely possible. We need to do some activities and it will appear.
Make an hourly chart and without thinking anything just write down whatever you are doing at that point of time for 7–10 days.
Give yourself 15mins daily for 10 days and try to write whatever comes to your mind when you think of your strength.
Keep a small notebook for 15 days and try to write any unique/crazy/impossible thoughts that cross your mind.
On the 16th day evaluate the information you gathered and I am sure you will find your talent quite easily.
For me talent is what we enjoy doing or what we are good at. Though some people say talent is inborn and I never disagree, but the point is with so much stress and pressure that inborn thing get suppressed somewhere.
Find some time to try these steps, I am sure you will discover your talent.
Further more on how you can discover your talent .
Ask yourself these four insightful questions.
1.Skill- Do I excel or do well in a particular area?
2.Passion- When I operate in this area do I find it to be enjoyable and fun?
3.Effectiveness- Do I have a positive and exciting impact on others when using this skill?
4.Fulfillment- Can I serve in this capacity voluntarily and receive total satisfaction?
If you can find an activity or area of giftedness which fits all of the above questions, then more than likely you have found what I call your “dominant gift”. To excel and be successful one should try to pursue a career that utilizes it in some capacity.
