Today, I'm asking you all to join me on a supernatural journey of self-discovery - a place where you're taking an audacious leap of faith by stepping into a magical portal and opening up about your God-given gifts and talents. Recently, I've had a chance to speak to @Delphinoid_ & @Northadox in my LAST thread about what they think they're good at. Even though they were willing to openly have a conversation with me about what their talents are, it was still a pleasure to know what they're capable of. This thread allows us to analyze and be more insightful about what we're really capable of. No poll this time! Let's just talk!
In THIS thread, I asked you guys what superpowers you would like to possess. Now, I'm asking you all to share gifts and talents that you do have.
I want you all to stop and recall a time where you've done something that unlocked your full potential. Step into a supernatural portal that takes us on a journey that leads us to what you're truly capable of. Hell, you can even open up an entire book about yourself and all the things you're good at. This can be the ability to sing really well, a particular sport you're naturally good at, drawing, playing an instrument, public speaking, or whatever it is. Don't be ashamed to tell us because there is no shame. One of the purposes of this thread is to have an open discussion about getting to know each other on a deeper level. I will not criticize your gifts and talents because I'm just here to learn more about you guys, that's it. For the newbies that have just created an account on JV2, this is a golden opportunity for you to express yourselves. Who knows, you might even make some new friends along the way.
TRUTH: There are going to be circumstances in life where you're going to piss some people off about your gifts and talents because you can literally pull off things that they can't. This is where the covetousness and enviousness takes over because they strongly desire something that you have. But, instead of trying to unlock their own full potential, they waste all that time and energy trying to figure out devious plots to ruin your life because you have something that they want. PATHETIC! My advice: don't pay these people any attention because they're obviously angry with themselves, and they're unsatisfied with what God gave them. Sure, you can try to help these people, but if they're not willing to help themselves, then respectfully walk away because they have negative energy that you don't want any part of.
I'll give you an example: You could be one of the most BEAUTIFUL people on the planet, while that other person (who is covetous and envious of you) is extremely UGLY on the beauty spectrum. Their face might look really disfigured, they might have a big head, ugly ass warts that makes your hair stand up, teeth looks jacked up, nose might be too big, or whatever the hell it is. Meanwhile, you've got all these gorgeous features that almost everybody wants, then you end up being the sexiest MAN or WOMAN in this year's magazine... you see what I mean? So don't sell yourself short if someone is quick to bully and criticize you because they're only looking to bring you down to their level. Even if you try to help these people embrace their ugliness by showing them that they're greater than that, and they still envy you... then it's no longer worth your time trying to help them anymore.
Example II: You could be one of the smartest people on this thread. But yet, some dick wishes he were as intelligent as you are because you speak in an articulate manner, you use college-level words, it seems like your vocabulary is unlimited, and you're naturally smart. Meanwhile, they barely finished high school. These kind of people are not only extremely covetous and envious of you, they're bitter inside. They will always look for opportunities to denigrate you and make you feel regretful of being highly intelligent. Sure, they can always apply themselves to get on your level, but then they have that instant gratification demon that just loathes you because you possess something that they currently don't have. You could be a college graduate who is the CEO of a tech company making six figures, while they're a high school-dropout flipping burgers at McDonalds getting paid minimum wage. Do not stoop to their level by developing regrets about the man or woman that you've become. Just because they threw their life away, doesn't mean that you have to.
It's ok if you're unaware of what these talents and gifts are, but perhaps maybe one of us can point them out to you so that you can gain the motivation to use them to make money or help people. @Mia is an example of someone who is a magnificent storyteller. I recognized that by chatting with him for the past, 2 years now. Even though he's a lurker who doesn't chat very much, he can still share some magnificent stories with you; he could literally write a book if he wanted to. A wasted gift or talent is equivalent to having all the tools inside your vehicle, but just sitting there bragging about how you got all these nice things and you don't even take advantage of them, is a wasted gift.
So now, I want you all to go super saiyan, tap into the left side of your brain's hemisphere, and think about all the God-given gifts and talents that you truly possess and harness. Open up a Kamehameha wave and unleash them all on this thread so that we can have an insightful discussion about them. Everybody has something deep within them that truly makes them a special human being. Once you figure out what that is, you can use them to get ahead in life because it's like you have special superpowers that no one else can possess. You see, we're our own, unique individuals. Who knows... you might even possess supernatural gifts that are beyond the normal, human comprehension - This could be the spirit of discernment, sixth sense, enhanced intuitive abilities, or even telekinesis. Just think of something you're really good at.
Here, I'll start us off (you can even make this more impactful by posting a super saiyan gif with your abilities):
