What skill did you develop before adulthood that you never would've learned as an adult,

because we're too selfish and/or stubborn to learn.



Like good manners, showing up on time
AND actually listening to other people because people flat-out gossip way too much, and it really gives you an advantage in manipulating peope

which is fun.


Annnyhew,

Outdoor people could say they learn how to fish and hunt and live off the land and they'd be right; that would be a really useful skill that I would have been too stubborn to learn as an adult. Well, not

HAVE, I doubt I survive the next blackout im so fricking useless.

So able to survive the zombies.

That's something on this page


you learn a lot; you can be a better friend if we listen.


Loved all of you

Guitar. I practiced all the time as a preteen and teen.

As an adult I never learned anything new and don’t even play anymore.

Play hockey (not well...) learning to skate is something you need to learn young. I still skate but no hockey, worried about getting injured

I learned to weld in high school as a part of a "senior inspiration" project. Put it down for several years afterwards but I had an opportunity to buy some equipment when I was 24 and went for it. Bought a mig welder, a compressor, a plasma cutter and a bunch of other stuff to learn formally. Im at a point now that I can do 80% of what professional welders do structurally. By no means a badass but ive done some good stuff with it. And still do it way more than I ever though it would.

Water ski. I have heard it is much harder to learn as an adult.
