Squeaky talks about her love of running. It is her special talent and she is proud of all the hard work she has put into being a better runner. She expresses disdain for people who pretend that they do not practice their talent or skill, and who prefer to have others believe that it is "easy" for them. Write a journal entry about your special talent or skill. Describe how you practice to become better at your skill. Does it come naturally, or do you have to work hard to achieve success? Your response should be about 150 words.

My special talent is something that needs a lot of practice to become better at it every day. Even though I discovered that it was easy to just hula hoop, I later realize that to improve, I have to keep practicing.

The easiest part about hula hooping is twirling the hoop around the waist but to twirl it and make different movements at the same time, you have to learn the steps and practice the sequences till the outcome is perfect.

I have hula hooped for five years, and the key to be better at it is being disciplined and practice every day. Besides, keeping yourself motivated by talking with other hoppers and sharing tips is essential to be better at it and see how far you have come.

My talent is something that needs practice, and my advice always that I meet someone who wants to start on this journey is to practice because no one would be able to do all those fabulous tricks with just talent. Behind every complex movement, there are hours of practice.

Explanation:
