They say that there are no people without talent. Sooner or later, any person discovers in himself some abilities that distinguish him from other people. With someone this happens even in childhood thanks to the care of parents, teachers, and their own work. In this case, the person naturally grows with his talent. But what if you discovered the ability to do something at an already mature age?
Instructions
Step 1
Let go of the familiar self-image and acknowledge your talent. Why do you need to be able to do this? Because the idea of oneself is formed largely thanks to public opinion. You can list your advantages and disadvantages, but can you be sure that everything you listed has to do with the real state of affairs? No, because most often people judge themselves and the world by relying on the opinions of other people, on their own fears and insecurities to a greater extent than on a sober look. With this approach, it is difficult to discern not only talent, but even the simplest positive quality … Learn to disengage from the usual idea of yourself and say to yourself: “Yes, I really can do something that others cannot. I'm talented."
Step 2
Take time for your talent. Know how to give up any pleasures in the name of developing your abilities. If you discovered that you sing beautifully - sing every day, if you have a talent for literature - write, for dancing - dance, etc. The main thing is to constantly feed the talent with practical exercises. Abilities can be fully revealed only when they are recognized in themselves and given a way out. Remember that talent is not given to you in order to store it in a distant drawer and blow off dust particles from it. Use your talent and don't be afraid to get dirty or make mistakes: you risk nothing.
Step 3
Make an effort to develop talent. You may have to overcome yourself, fight your own laziness, pride, inattention, and other qualities that are common to all people. Daily effort and austerity are essential ingredients for any progress. Only complete focus on what you love can enable you to make a breakthrough. Develop your own system of exercises to develop your abilities.
Step 4
Study the biographies of talented people you are interested in. You will see that even the most successful people had to overcome a huge number of difficulties at the beginning of the journey. From this, your own path, even if it is not easy, will seem natural to you, leading you in the right direction.
