Hit your target

The daily prompt wants to know – What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

I wish I had the secret skill that allowed me to work harder to achieve more skills and abilities. Because I’m old enough to know you don’t get them by wishing.

Some other thoughts.

  • I wish I had the skill to play basketball at a high level.
  • Secret ability – I used to be able to ride a skateboard well in the 60s.
  • I wish I had the ability to manage my time better.
  • Secret skill – I’m a good marksman.
  • I should have tried my hand in music. I think I could have been good at it.
  • I bet I have the skill to be a good autocross driver.
  • I wish I could rebound faster from adversity.
  • Someday I’m going to have to see if I can play golf again with my surgically repaired shoulders.

Skillz

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? – An introspective question from the daily writing prompt.

I had to think for a few minutes, if I had a secret skill or ability, I hadn’t shared with anyone. Not that I have many skills or abilities to start with. What’s the old saying “jack of all trades, master of none.”

Time will tell if it is a skill or ability, but I haven’t shared my drawings yet and might not for a good while. Those judgements of skill and ability are always in the eye of the beholder. As long as I’m happy with them, that’s all that matters.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have the skill to bring peace to the world.

I wish I had the ability to make people laugh as easily as Robin William did.

Secret Skilz

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? So ask the Daily Writing prompt.

I don’t know why I had a problem with this one but the answer didn’t flow like it normally does. I guess if I have any skills or abilities I hope they are not a secret by now. Then again, I do have a few now that I reflect, but if I share them the secret is out.

I wish to have the skill/ability to be a good artist and writer. I’m also wishing for my cooking skills to become special. My thought is to keep working hard on it and see if it can happen.

Now this is nice work. Photo by Mike Hartley
