Few years back I wrote a post on the necessity of sharing an Idea. This post is pretty connected to that. This talks about the necessity to find your Talent.
Before I move forward, let me ask you one question…
"Have you got a talent?"
No seriously, think for a minute.
Are you thinking in the paths that you are not a champion in any sport, you are not a very good singer, you can’t perform magic, you can’t act, you can’t dance?
Well, read ahead.
The biggest problem that burdens everyone’s thought is of being ‘successful’ & being ‘recognised’ for the talent. Everyone has a feeling that only those are talented who are renowned in a large group of people. That’s not it!
Someone who can write with both hands is talented.
Someone who can paint/draw/mould is talented.
Someone who can cook is talented.
Someone who can make others smile is talented.
Someone who can play an instrument is talented.

Talent is diverse. Talent is vivid. Talent is in everyone. Everyone is uniquely blessed with something or the other which s/he is good at. That is talent. Find the that you are good at. Find what you do or can do better than many of the others?
Now, ask the same question again to yourself, “Have you got a talent?”. I am sure by the time you ask this question to yourself few times, you would have started to find your talent.
Remember a very famous saying, “Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads.”
Labelled as a person suffering (not really!) with hyped-disorder called IAD, I have been viewing and reading a lot on the web. This IS my window to the world. There are tons of videos, related to talent showcasing, that I have been seeing repeatedly for last few years, and I just came across few of them again recently. Thought of putting it here so that few more can see, enjoy & feel surprised (and inspired). So let me go ahead by embedding few of the videos (I guess, I am good at CnP, read as 'Copy and Paste'. Well, that’s another talent! Thank You.)
Take a few minutes and experience these videos. Make sure you are audio equipped.
Kseniya Simonova's - Sand Animator
Backdrop: Kseniya Simonova is a Sand animator from Ukraine. She came to limelight after winning the Ukraine’s Got Talent show. In this video she attempts to portray life during the USSR's Great Patriotic War against the Third Reich in World War II. The presentation, the background score, the ambience, the energy of the presenter....all are truly brilliant. Kseniya won the show held in 2009.

“Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?”
Susan Boyle - Singer
Backdrop: Susan Boyle is a Singer from Scotland. She came to limelight after her brilliant performance in Britain’s Got Talent show in 2009. Watch the video and see how people’s mindset change in less than a minute! (If you are also one of those who judge people by their looks think again.). I really admired the way she kept her confidence despite everyone’s laughing at her. Bravo. Susan finished the show with 2nd spot and is now a well known singer who is credited with breaking many records at the chartbuster list worldwide.

Quite moving, aren’t they?
I will end this post by citing a very famous quote.
“Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.”
I wish you very best in finding out your talent. I’m sure You will.
God bless you.
