Cant find anything I am good at.?

Question

So basically i am almost 20 and i cant find out what i am good at in life. What is something i can do to find out what i am good at? I mean since i cant find anything i am good at i just stay home and do nothing.

Answer 1

Here is the thing. You wont find anything your good at if you just stay home and do nothing. Try to get on a sport team. Get a job you like. Learn something new! You cant just sit there and think you will just suddenly be good at something.

Answer 2

Almost no-one is good at something straight away. Usually the way it works is you find something you ENJOY doing, and then you do it a lot, and then you get good at it. Whether that is painting, a sport, or playing video games. Try to find something that floats your boat and do it a lot - you'll find that befor eyou know it you are good at it. And the process won't even be painful!

Hope that helps

You probably havent done enough to know what you're good at.  You are one of the unlucky people who havent found that 'spark' in their life. You just need to try new things. try doing something you've always wanted to do or starting working in a strange new environment. Sign yourself up for an art class or some exercise class or just any class you can find. Try doing something around the house that you normally dont do. Try cooking. My friend actually never cooked so she thought that she didnt like it and one day the need came for her to cook dinner. So, she cooked dinner and decided she loved it and she had a flare at it. Now, shes going to work as a culinary artist.

Just go out into the world and do something new. It doesnt matter what, because if you try many many new things you'll be bound to find something youre good at.

The only thing to do is try different things. You could probably do anything you set your mind to if you are truly interested in doing that thing. What's something you think is cool? When I first heard the sound of guitar, I thought that it was awesome and I wanted to try it. So I took guitar lessons and even though I'm still not good at it, I like it. And I'm getting better. You don't have to be good at things to be able to do something with your life. You just have to try. That way, you have something to reach for and try to get better at. I do artwork now, and when I first started drawing, I was terrible... but now I'm trying to get better and better at it and that's what counts. If you really want something to do, experiment with things and just try things out. Then just work hard at them, and you'll be good at it.

Answer 5

Maybe your good at staying home and doing nothing

Answer 6

Don't be too hard to yourself, a lot of things you might be good at, it could be abstract or vivid, depends if you want to make a name of yourself.

Have you try programming or painting?

You might be surprise that you can do it, for example: I was feeling hopeless with my old project and I thought I try the impossible - painting. I have never done it before and not even want to think of trying to paint.

And out of the blue everybody want my painting (I'm not selling them) while I try to rethink more about my project.... may be I'm just not good at it !!! but i'll not giveup.

Try your hand on anything and perhaps one day you find your nitch...

Answer 7

Try playing the drums. Even if you're no good it will be good to relieve your stress.

Answer 8

Do you like to talk -sales or counseling

Do you like bicycling -repair/sales

Do you like children - childcare

Do you like building - construction/trades

Do you like exercise - fitness center/sales/waiter

Do you like cooking - restaurant cook

I could go on and on but you get the idea.  Don't be afraid to take a job that doesn't pay that well.  If you are doing what you like you will be happier than if you make a lot of money but hate your job.
