    Like you could have an amazing talent for a musical instrument but you’ve never played it so you’ll never know or you could have a talent for fencing or archery but cause you’ve never tried you just don’t know it’s kinda sad how we’ll probably go our entire lives not discovering some things that we are amazing at

    In my opinion, if you never tried something you have 0 talent for it. There's no otherwise.

    Perhaps, but my amazing talent at being lazy will not allow any other talent precedence. :blobcozy:

    Laziness and procrastination are blessings and curses at the same time.

    Talent is natural, so I think unconsciously even of you don't don't know about it, you will still want to try it.

    So, not trying means it's not for you.

    So it's not talent at all...

    I mean, people give talent too much credit. An average person will not suddenly become "amazing" at anything all of a sudden, even if they are talented, so I think it's more important to think of the things you'd love to do but will never know it, since you'll never try them

    I have an amazing talent at getting anxious and unwittingly triggering panic attacks. No other talent matters!

    Talent is basically interest imo. If you love doing something so much that you can do it repetitively for hours everyday of your life then you have the so called "talent" for it. Whether you actually go through with putting that much effort into it is the "hard work" component.

    If you haven't tried it that means you don't really like it enough to actually pick it up and try it.

    That might be true... There are certain circumstances on why we can't "do" or "try" something. For instance, a talent for ice skating or skiing but you live in a country with no snow at all. But i would like to call it interest, rather than talent. :D Haha, just don't mind this.

    I have the talent to procrastinate and day dream all day long. I didn't practice but still able to be this good. If thats not talent, i dunno what is.

    Then try it when you get the chance. Talent is just instinctual knowledge.

    Same. It's pretty cool, though.
