Stephen King asserts that,
'Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented
individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.'

I dont quite agree with the first part of the statement (i.e talent being cheaper than table salt). The 2nd part has some element of truth, but hardwork isnt always a necessary condition for success.

For almost 2yrs now, I have been doing some personal research on Talents, and i would be delighted if this topic elicits some new findings for me.

Please don't eliminate anyone that comes to your mind...just list them, it doesn't have to be correct.
Pls i dont want any wikipedia/any internet link. I know howto Google! :roll:

I start with;
Singing,
