An envy of talents

[pyronikari]

People state a lot that hard work and practice can make up and even surpass natural talent. That is bullshit. In terms of skill, there are caps. Yes, someone that works hard will accomplish someone that is talented but doesn't work at all, but someone that is untalented will never surpass someone that is talented and works equally as hard

I was thinking about this somewhat recently, and also thought that singing/dancing would be the talents I wanted the most if I could just "have" one. This besides something practical like being an awesome writer. But the interesting question to me is -- if you could be an awesome singer or an awesome dancer, which would you be? For me, it was dance!

Singer, in a heartbeat. I would love to be able to move people with my voice.
