Is doing two things or more at once a talent some are born with? or is it a skill?

skill, take for example I can read and type at the same time, or I can look at somewhere else while I write.\n\nThis isn't talent. It took practice for me to do those stuff.

I can do 'the wave' with my tongue, and I can gleek (which is shoot two streams of saliva out in straight lines from under my tongue), I can move my middle finger from side to side without moving any others fingers...and I can pull my shoulder out of socket (looks really weird though)\n\nBut honest talents?.. I CAN sing.. but I rarely do because of being self conscience and considerate to others. \n\nAnd my husband professes that I have others.. but it's just not suited to this forum.. so NO details there..sorry

Both at the same time. It depends how you use it and who you encounter. Just like life really.

If you have talent, show it.

Talent should get you father but sometimes it works the otherway. Its easier to have talent and get image than to have image and get talent.

To me, A person's success lies on their ability to be persistant, believe in themselves and don't give up when others say they can't do something. When someone says, "You can't do that!" It makes me even more determined to do whatever it is I wanted to do!

Some people may have talent, but that does not help with personal problems or arrogance.\n\nSome rock stars kill themselves, even if by accident.  Some do not, but get away with some might crazy things.

Everyone has a special talent about something. Discover your own talent and work on it a lot. If you work really hard on it with patience for years, maybe you can be on top.

Without a doubt I am one of the most talented people I know.  I am female and can multi-task beyond belief......\n\nIt would boggle your mind!

I think this person you are referring to has multiple personalities. ("themself?")

Actually, according to the theories of Howard Gardner, who introduced the concept of "Multiple Intelligences" in 1983, the two concepts are essentially the same. As research on the brain continues, scientists are uncovering a growing body of evidence that these theories are true.\n\nDr. Gardner felt that the notion of intelligence that was based on I.Q. testing was too limited and proposed that there are eight different intelligences: Linguistic (word smart), Logical-mathematical (number/reasoning smart), Spatial (picture smart), Bodily-Kinesthetic (body smart), Musical (music smart), Interpersonal (people smart), Intrapersonal (self smart), and Naturalist (nature smart).\n\nThe important thing to keep in mind, whether you're tossing about terms like "intelligence," "talent" or "ability" is that this just addresses human POTENTIAL. Just because someone is "gifted" with the "right stuff" to be a dancer, musician, or rocket scientist, it means nothing without the proper training to bring about actual skill development in those fields. In addition to training, motivation and determination also play a huge factor. Therefore, someone who is less talented but who is willing to work harder can often find success while the person who is gifted but lazy will not.\n\nThe bottom line is that skills can be taught to virtually everyone, but at different rates depending on their innate abilities and motivation. Some exceptions apply, such as teaching dance to people who aren't flexible.

It is possible if you are born with a strange mutation such that you have hundreds of fingers.  If you only have ten fingers you could do one digit at a time and just remember if you need to cary one over.

I take great pride in my ability to do many things,(e.i. breaking and training horses <sometimes ones never been handled>, obedience training unruly dogs, driving 18 wheelers, operator heavy equipment, major carpentry work, professional painter, plumbing, auto mechanics, won trophies in marksmanship and in horse show competitions, etc.) But I've learned every bit of this from different men (7 brothers, 4 uncles, father, and a husband.) And I've not let it all go to my head to the point that I believe I'm better at these things than every man, because I'm not. I think your ability to do certain things better depends on the individual's desire to be the best they can be and if they had a good instuctor to teach them, not a sex.

Well, here on Answers I have a hidden talent.  I play the piano.  It's been years, but I can still play.
