Seriously I'm only good at 4 things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709706 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:58:33 +0000 catlady 2709706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Worrying. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709693 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:42:27 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2709693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cleaning? When I was about 17 and my sister was 4 she said to me, "you should be a cleaner when you grow up because you're so good at cleaning!" The truth is I just get so much anxiety when my house is a mess because I grew up in a hoarder's house. So I'm constantly cleaning and doing dishes and putting things away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709668 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:43:35 +0000 bubblegum 2709668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: That's a great one!

I don't like the mess, time and cost. But I do love the taste and sense of accomplishment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709481 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 12:03:14 +0000 smocks 2709481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Reading the title, I automatically thought "piano" too, lol. I didn't play for as long though, I think 10 years total. Did the recitals, pedagogy competitions, music theory exams, etc. I was good, but I mostly did it for my mom. I don't miss it, but I did develop a love for listening to classical music. Not sure it was worth the $$$ she dropped on it.</p> <p>Another is swimming. My technique is great, but I don't like swimming by myself at the pool, I need it to be competitive. So, I have basically no stamina anymore and if I do hop in the pool it's for like 30 minutes max. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709237 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 00:30:59 +0000 PawPrints 2709237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nothing comes to mind for myself, but you should definitely get into jazz piano! Being able to create music is a gift that keeps giving your whole life, plus major benefits for your kids if they start hearing you play from time to time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/something-that-you-are-good-but-dont-enjoy#post-2709218 Sun, 12 Mar 2017 22:54:37 +0000 mrbee 2709218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I played classical piano for 20 years, and even competed in piano competitions! But I never really enjoyed it; I did it mostly because it made my mom so happy. I also felt like if I quit, then I would be letting everyone down (my mom, my piano teacher, etc.).</p> <p>I finally quit when I went to college, but then I found myself missing the feeling of accomplishment from being good at something. So believe it or not, I took it up again on my own accord! Then I didn't want to let down my piano teacher, and ended up playing for another 4 years.</p> <p>I would like to take up jazz piano at some point; maybe I can transfer some of those ol' piano chops over? Although I sat down at the piano the other day and was awful, so maybe not.</p> <p>What's something you good at, but don't really enjoy? (Beside parenting, haha!) </p>
