Just do it. Guitar playing ability is all hard work.
Meh you also gotta know what your doing. It's like anything physical. You can play bball every day if you don't use the right methods to develope talent you will never do well.

Revolutionise the computer world with some funky algorithm that changed everything for the better. (Of course I would become a billionaire in this scenario).

Cool (in a greedy bastard type of way). I’m a geometry wiz… and I use that skill to paint geometrical gibberish to the extreme.. an extremely handy skill to have in my line of work.

Case in point, a work in progress. This shot is an early stage.. its much further along now.. and looks much different, but still, this pic demonstrates geometry in action -

I would like to be more practical with my hands.

I struggle to put up a shelf; whilst my dad will have a crack at electrics, plumbing, carpentry etc and he usually makes a decent job of it, too.

Not at all its part of knowing what the fuck your at. The difference between a sloppy player and someone with good technique is all about knowing the best methods to getting you good. Training with a metronome at all fucking times, developing good ears, knowing how to fill a role in a band etc, are all part of it. If you wanna be a meathead on guitar sure bruteforce is the way to go but if you wanna be a guitar master you need just a bite more, and it's beyond pratice.

play guitar.

Absolutely, singing + playing the guitar.

As a child my mom tried to push me all the time to learn an instrument and I was always like "Piss off with that crap, I stick to video games". Today I regret to death that I never learned an instrument. Imagine the amount of quality vag one could pull with a guitar and a smoky singing voice. :'(

Basically we're all useless pieces of crap, that's why we do Bodybuilding. Bodybuilding is really for people who try to compensate for their lack of talent in any other aspect of life with their looks.

Noone who could write, dance, sing, act, paint, be good any any other sports......or do anything else halfway decent would bodybuild.

"Fuck you Bryan Adams, you might sing better than me, play the guitar better, have influenced millions of people, make millions of $ and can have a different groupie every single day of the year but still my biceps is bigger, how bout that...?" ::)

If you could pick one.

For example

Singing
Good tennis player
fast runner


etc etc.

And lets just say you're Not allowed to make any money out of it so you can choose what you Really want.


I would kill for a amazing singing voice lol.

I would sing for an amazing kill  8)

Speak for yourself, "bro"...
We all have talent, we all have some gifts, many of us spend too much time ON HERE to develop them. Anybody can learn to play a instrument, draw, paint, etc, just takes effort, like bbing. And most of those people who have learned all those skills, look at bbing as something hard to do. All in all it's discipline. Right now, I trying to get back to reteaching myself my Cello, beautiful sound...
