Owlbird83 in this scenario whichever skill you pick, you immediately become as good as the human that is best at that skill (throughout history or current), without having to spend that time learning. i feel like i'd choose public speaking because i really admire the people who can think on the spot and eloquently put whatever they are thinking and want to say into a concise/thoughtful response with their internal thoughts flowing directly into clear/understandable/well phrased outward ideas. I feel like it'd be a skill that would be really useful to have.
Sine Owlbird83 I feel like the the skill I would pick is running since it is something that the vast majority of people have done in their lives and not a niche skill
ArtyDReams Love this thread as I've thought about it many times myself! I would love to be able to create beautiful artworks that really speak to people.
Joseph41 I think I'd probably go with golf. Seems like a nice, relaxing hobby. But I'm no good at it.
katierinos I would love to be able to pick up any musical instrument & be able to play it well (when I was in primary I had the goal to eventually learn every instrument but its takes ages to be good at one)!
calebark GAMSAT Lifting -- purely because I am not anywhere close to weighing 150 kg like a lot of top strength athletes, so being able to smash out a 500 kg deadlift would be hilarious.
lm21074 Playing pool because the most I can do is hold a pool stick. Also lifting. Imagine lifting cars and other heavy objects for fun. Being a small person, it would be mystifying.
Rey_of_sunshine Learn any language probably or something to improve my memory Or sewing, one of the three
LarainaS Great question! I'd choose public speaking. It's invaluable for clear communication, confidence, and influence. It benefits careers, personal growth, and social impact. What skill would others choose?
