In response to Molly's comment about Natual Talenthttp://georgiannelblog.blogspot.com/


When did you realize that what you want to do with your college degree is something you are naturally talented at?
Molly,
Unlike you, who are the beginning of your career, I have had many different careers since I started working full time in 1976.  It took a long time and working in several different fields to find a job that I was naturally talented at. 
 I found that I work well with people. I can communicate with clients and build a relationship with them in a short period of time. I love helping people and I take great pride in managing the relationship.  I like knowing that I have met my commitments and that I have followed through and made sure their requests were handled in a timely manner.
As you can see my education is being completed at the end of my career.  Until the early 90’s I really didn’t have a desire to get a college degree, but once my husband and I had put our children through college I realized I did really want a college degree. So I went to college at night and worked during the day. It took me years to earn my associates degree and now I am on my way to completing my Bachelors Degree.
My goal is to complete my degree and use my degree to work with people in some kind of small business or non-profit setting.  
 Do you feel that everyone feels that they have one special natural talent or is it that we learn what we are talented at over time?
