Talent That Goes Unused is Wasted

“God gives everyone certain attributes, characteristics, talents,

and them he says ‘If you use what you have I’ll increase it,

but if you don’t use it lose it.’ Use it or lose it, it’s a law.”

Charlie ‘Tremendous’ Jones, Motivational Speaker

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Talent that goes unused is wasted

 

Your talent is a valuable resource . . . . The true value is only revealed when you put your talent to work consistently with a purpose.

 

Your talent will only grow when it’s used . . . . and is wasted when it’s not used.

 

Never fear that you will run out of talent . . . . the more that you use it  the more it will grow and multiply and increase in its value to you.

 

The key is about your talent is that the value in that talent is not in having it . . . . it’s true value is in using it.

 

Take your talent use it’s max and with a purpose . . . . And you will be amazed in what you will accomplish and how your talent will grow.

 

Sad to say talent that goes unused is wasted . . . . without giving the holder any benefit from having it.

Lou, that is so true some can't identify talent and that can be a killer for those individuals that possess great talent so one must keep on keeping on.

Lou, "use it or lose it" is so true. Unfortunately, many choose the later! Enjoy your day!

It is always amazing to me when you see some of the TV talent shows and someone steps up to a microphone that belts out a song in perfect pitch.  Why were they hiding their talent for so long?

It is true -- think of how many wonderful artists or musicians or leaders the world has lost -- simply because the individuals never tried to develop the skills which were lurking inside of them.

Lou, isn't it amazing how one's talents just continue to blossom when used and wither when left unattended?
