Just curious – what are you good at?

For me, I have found that people come to me to talk about their problems and get advice. Guess I’m a good listener, strong person, and don’t put up with crap from anyone. I wanted to be a psychiatrist when I was younger.

I also think that I am good at dancing, in particular, tap dancing. It’s in the genes. My grandma used to teach line-dancing classes and my mom danced in college. I’m a dancin fool, lol.

Dianepage – your peep pictures remind me of Dinner for Schmucks and his mice. 🙂

What am I good at?

– Baking

– Wasting time

I like to do crafts, photography and outdoor activities. I am not sure I am that good at them, but I enjoy them. I would like to learn more things, but everything is on hold at the moment.

Boxing? My hands are noob-ish which is why throw 80% kicks.

My MMA instructor either cracked or dislocated my rib(s) 6 weeks ago with an uppercut.

Oh man it sucks.

@Rezaking — Yeah, man! I was a baseball guy all through high school and a little in college, but when I stopped playing ball, I needed something to keep me busy, so I got into boxing. I boxed at a local gym by my house for about 4 years…couple small tournaments, but that's about it. Buuut, it's been about 3 years since I stopped boxing and I'm slow and out of shape…eh, thank you CPA exam. What was your style? I mean, I'm a pretty short guy, but I was pretty quick and I had a lot of power for my weight class. Work the body, work the body, work the body!

Research. I am good at finding information, sifting through it, and making conclusions very rapidly. This is useful for studying, writing papers, finding answers to questions, and helping friends and family find answers.

Otherwise, I am just good at multi-tasking.

I'm good at everything I do, well except for guitar playing (but I am trying). But let's face it, I am white and I have zero rhythm and a flat butt so some things are just not in the genes.

Here are my passions:

1) Fly fishing. I love throwing a fly that I made to a rising Brookie or Rainbow trout in a great river or even moreso to a tailing Bonefish or tarpon on the flats in a beautiful paradise. I am going to begin making my own fly rods when this is all over.

2) Playing guitar. I now know small parts of 80 different songs.

3) Hunting. Doesn't matter what, it's in my DNA. I don't call it a sport, I consider it part of my core being.

4) Spending time with the family.

I love this thread!

– I'm good at cooking, like a lot of you. My husband can complain that we have “nothing to eat” in the house, then I go in the kitchen and 30 to 45 minutes later I'm serving a delicious dinner. Thank you Food Network for all the cooking lessons!

– I'm also the grammar and spelling police. Seriously every time I see a “your” where it should be a “you're” it jumps out at me like a black eye. I won my 6th grade spelling bee!

– I am *amazing* at procrastination. I think it's a gift. lol

– I'm an empathetic listener, like the OP posted. Never considered psychology as a career though.

Huh… let's see:

1. Second-guessing myself (changed a lot of answers on the FAR exam and they were right in the first place!)

2. Taking care of people (EVERYONE comes to me with their problems and sometimes TMI)

3. Taking care of animals

4. Talking too much and too fast

5. My husband laughs at me all the time and calls me a freak, others just laugh at me (I guess I am funny)

6. Not giving up until things are right (or go my way) 🙂

7. Math, English, grammar (I dislike history, science, etc.)

8. I am sure there are other things…

[Tootsie]

@Maverick, lol. I guess I need to think my mom for my figure and my dad for my high metabolism. My mom and I have practically the same figure. 5ft3 and small. She is more muscular than me though because she works out a lot.
