Introduction
As one of the greatest and important aspect, talent is seen as a call, which can be defined
as the power of mind given to an individual so that he or she can make improvement and make
the current situation better for him and others. Skills, on the other hand, are the capacity to act
and perform any task whose results are put into consideration at a given time using required
energy. Below is a discussion of how I intend to use my skills and talent which include; reading,
public speaking, and beadwork to make the world a better place for human beings.
One of my talents among many is reading; I consider it my talent since I can read very
fast, and also I get to understand the hard phrases used in many books. I will use this ability to
help especially individuals who are physically challenged to analyze the characters in a given
book or article and also the role they play, which in turn will help them know how to act like the
characters in the book.
Whereby I will mold them to become actors, an area I am best talented also. And by so
doing they will perform to people who will in return pay them. I will have achieved a goal of
helping these physically challenged people not to pity themselves but to build something good
out of it. They will gain self-esteem, it will prove to them and the world that disability is not
inability which will also pose a challenge to those who are physically fit yet they only seat back
and complain, criticize and blame life due to probably their lack of money or job yet the disabled
have it their way. It will create a competitive world whereby one will want to use any available
resources and privilege offered to them to better his or other people's life. People will also view
the life of others as being equally important as theirs
Another area I am also highly talented is doing bead work, whereby I decorate different
things like mats using beads. I am intending to use this talent to train those children who are in
special schools and are considered as having mental problems or autism, which are mild that they
cannot concentrate on academic work. I can primarily train them in activities of daily living not
forgetting that bead work will be interesting to such group. It will become interested in it and
especially those who are attracted not to a human being but non-living thing. I will look for
good wishers who can support these mentally ill individuals by buying their products and by
doing so, I will have preoccupied their mind. They will be kept busy thus, will not go on
interrupting people and becomes a burden to them.
Public speaking is another area whereby I am talented in; I like very much to speak
to a group of youth especially those who have given up in their life thinking that they cannot
make it in life. These are individuals who believe that life is unfair to them and that they are
doomed to perish; I will help this group by giving them examples of people who have worked
very hard to emerge successfully after using my inspirations. I will show them the importance of
trying and persist more even if it's many times until they achieve and also the impacts of failure
of not trying. By these, I will have build confidence in them and create the creativity in them
since I will have pump sense into their minds.
Conclusion
In conclusion and by using my three talents that I have analyzed, which are, reading,
beadwork and public speaking, I will have helped three categories of individuals. They include,
physically challenged, mentally hard capped and those who have low self-esteem. These are
groups of individuals who if not taken care of and engaged in activities I elaborated, may at the
end of the day develop to be dependent, criminals and sometimes make life unbearable to their
parents. This implies that if they get means of motivation and income, they will be independent
and preoccupied. These will create a humble time for them which will give them the confidence
of being successful in life.
