Your undiscovered super talent?

Often wonder how many of us have a world class hidden talent that have simply remained undiscovered, because our lives just didn’t take the right turns to discover it.

I’d like to think I never discovered I’ve got the skills to be an Olympic level skeleton bobsleigher. Or, failing that, an incredible street dancer.

How about you?

I can spot a spider from 100 miles away.

Record is 3 live releases in 4 hours

I'm an amazing guitarist and vocal performer. I have never played any instrument( apart from school recorder aged 9) and only sing in the car!

I am 100% sure that I am potentially an Olympic standard figure skater. If I could skate well obviously. I used to skate with my friends when our local paper did vouchers every holiday. We always cut them out and harassed parents for the rest of the money and bus fare. Even with the voucher, with bus costs, every time I asked was a massive issue.

So when my children ask can they do something, if I can make it happen, I do. If I cannot, I say why and am mindful that I do not want to always be negative, so if it is a no, I tell them if it could be a yes another time.

Or maybe it cannot happen, so I am super gentle and put a lot of effort into empowerment.
