  • We spend most of our youth in an educational system that tests us on our ability to do

  • well in just a handful of things. This causes many of us to grow up thinking that we lack

  • the talent and the intellect to succeed in life. When in reality, it might be because

  • we were simply being tested on things that we don't have an affinity for.

  • Today I'm going to go over the 11 abilities that exist in life. If you're someone who

  • worries about finding their passion, watch this video till the very end. Because you'll

  • gain an understanding of where your strengths liewhich will give you an idea of which

  • direction you should go. Now just to clarify, when I use the word ability,

  • I'm talking about two things. These are things that you have a natural interest in. And these

  • are things that you probably already excel ateven if it's just slightly more than

  • the average person.

  • It's also important to note that although natural talent existspractice and gaining

  • experience equates to at least half of the mastery for any of these abilities. This means

  • that with enough effort and hard work, you can still become pretty good at any of the

  • 11. With that being said, let's jump right into it.

  • _____________________________________________________________________________

  • Starting off we have Musical Ability. People who score high in this category enjoy listening

  • to music, may learn better by listening, and have a sharp sense for what sounds pleasant

  • to the ear.

  • This means that they have a knack for rhythm, tones, melody, and can often memorize and

  • replicate pieces of music quickly. If you have a strong affinity for music then it probably

  • means that you are good at playing musical instruments, singing, or even composing music.

  • And although this is often a skill set that society dismisses as just a hobbythere

  • are many career paths for people that excel in this ability. This includes becoming a

  • music-related content creator, working on audio for films and videos, composing and

  • writing music, and working on sound design in general.

  • ____________________________________________________________________________

  • Next up we have Natural Ability. People who score high in this category usually enjoy

  • spending time in nature, love plants and animals, and they understand how the different compounds

  • and elements in the world interact with each other.

  • This means that they have a knack for survival skills. They can identify individual plants

  • and species ,understand how animals behave, and they know how everything in nature is

  • connected.

  • Possible career paths for someone who scores high in Natural Ability include cooking, farming,

  • working with animals, working with medicine, and even working in health. Because everything

  • related to our body is technically part of nature. And they can also work in any field

  • related to the environment. _____________________________________________________________________________

  • The next category on our list is Movement Ability. People who score high in this ability

  • enjoy moving their bodies, whether it's large explosive movements or even the tiniest and

  • most fine-tuned of movements.

  • They have the powerful ability to control individual muscles in their body, allowing

  • them to do amazing things that often deemed impossible for the average person.

  • The great thing about this category is that it's heavily tied to practice. Repeating a

  • movement literally strengthens your neuron's ability to fire in that way. Which allows

  • you to repeat that move faster and more accurately over time.

  • Possible career paths for someone who enjoys and excels at movement are the sports, dance,

  • fine craftsmanship, personal training, and even martial arts.

  • _____________________________________________________________________________

  • Next up, we have Interpersonal Ability. People who have an affinity for this have a deep

  • understanding of the relationships between people. They can quickly read someone's body

  • language and get an idea of how they are feeling - and they are usually good at holding conversations.

  • They understand human nature and how people interact with each other.

  • Possible career paths for someone who has a knack for this ability include sales, creating

  • social content (like interviews and talk shows), event planning, relationship counseling, and

  • even working in law enforcement. Because they need to be able to read people.

  • ____________________________________________________________________________

  • Similar to Interpersonal Ability is our next category, which is called Intrapersonal Ability.

  • People who have an affinity for this have a deep understanding of themselves.

  • They know how to look in the mirror to spot what needs work, allowing them to reflect

  • and adjust. This is an extremely powerful ability that is crucial for self-improvement.

  • Because the only way you can improve is if you can identify what you need to work on

  • in the first place.

  • Now there aren't too many occupations that focus mainly on intrapersonal ability. It's

  • something that helps you work on yourself. But professions like therapists, self-improvement

  • coaches, and motivational speakers fall under this category to some degree.

  • _____________________________________________________________________________

  • Up next we have Logical Ability. People who fall under this category can reason well.

  • They may have some interest in math and the sciences. But most importantly they are interested

  • in the truth.

  • They act on reason more than emotion. Often feeling like the correct answer is more important

  • than whats morally right.

  • People who score high in this category are excellent at solving technical problems and

  • can usually predict whether or not something will work with reasonably high accuracy.

  • These people usually make great investors, scientists, inventors, entrepreneurs. This

  • is actually the one of the few strengths that will increase your chances of success regardless

  • of what career path you go down. Because it allows you to differentiate from right and

  • wrong.  _____________________________________________________________________________

  • Now that we're halfway through the list. I'd like to take a second and quickly tell you

  • about how you can figure out which one of these abilities you should focus on. See,

  • there are certain things that we grow up liking, certain things that we naturally gravitated

  • towards when we were kids and still do to some degree.

  • range of things to see what catches your attention. Which is why this episode was brought to you

  • with the help of the guys at Curiosity Stream.

  • documentaries and non-fiction tv shows on topics like history, nature, science, food,

  • travel, and much much more. By looking at their selection you should find yourself naturally

  • And this should give you a good idea of where your passions might lie.

  • Up next is Digital Ability. This is one of the newer abilities on this list because the

  • digital world has only really risen in popularity in the last decade or so.

  • Most people who fall under this category are the younger generations as they've grown up

  • with the digital world being a huge part of their life. They have a deep understanding

  • how the digital world works. Social media, SEO, marketing, memes, going viral are all

  • things that fall under this category.

  • Which is why occupations related to this ability are endless. Quite frankly anything that can

  • be done online requires some degree of digital ability. And the demand for people with these

  • skills is only going to increase year after year as more and more business is conducted

  • online.

  • for the aesthetics. This means they can spot what looks pleasant to the eye. They can tell

  • to recreate these images on paper. Possible career paths include architects, illustrators,

  • And finally, we have Spiritual Abilitywhich is a very unique category as it's something

  • that almost everyone gains interest in as they age.

  • Because it's the ability to think about the bigger questions in life. Like what happens

  • after we die. What's the meaning of life. Is there god? Things like that.

  • People who are fascinated by this category can become philosophers, pastors or monks,

  • or might just spend a lot of time thinking about these things. There aren't that many

  • occupations that require a specialty in this ability.

  • ____________________________________________________________________________

  • Now, most people have an affinity for more than one of these 11 abilities. But you must

  • figure out which ones interest you the most. And then try to think about what career paths

  • make use of those abilities.

  • This will allow you to make a good living while doing something that you're actually

  • interested in, which will make your work life more fun and enjoyable.
