Be Not Afraid of Greatness

Day 1: What are three things you wish you were great at?

1. I wish I were a great musician.

Mainly, a harmonious voice and wicked guitar skills. It’s always been a dream of mine to perform. I imagine myself playing guitar and singing for a small group of people at an open mic night. Shoot, I'd even be happy if I could play a couple songs and throw them on YouTube! Practice, practice, practice... this dream is actually attainable.

2. I wish I were a phenomenal dancer.

I watched the entire season of Dancing With the Stars and was constantly envious of how well the professional dancers moved their bodies. I used to dance when I was younger – ballet, tap, jazz, cheerleading, modern, and a tad of ballroom – and even now I throw on some funky tunes and dance every chance I get. To be a professional dancer would be a dream! 

3. I wish I were great at memorization.

I have a terrible memory. I feel my grades would have been sky-high in college if I were able to memorize well. It’s just such a handy skill – memorizing lines from a movie, names of new acquaintances, words in other languages, the capitals of every state in the U.S., the list goes on! Not only is it a great social skill, but it’s so handy in life, and clears the clutter of post-it notes and scrap paper!
