Something in which I am brilliant... Undoubtedly I would say strategy, mainly in video games, I have always been fond of strategy games, studying a plan, adapting and preparing countermoves, thinking and reasoning... It always came naturally to me as early as elementary school: I remember at the release of Age of empires, My classmates had to use cheats and no one completed the campaign, I didn't need them and managed to finish it, growing up I then pounced on Command and Conquer, winning with ease 1 v 7 brutal AI then playing in lan against other schoolmates (needless to say all steamrolled for good), with the advent of the internet I was able to jump into online competitions where I was eventually finishing easily in the top8 out of 20-30k players. This passion then allowed me to apply the strategy more generally to real areas of life: a paper in Italian class where I would write down what the prof I knew wanted to read, where I would direct classmates to steal the class assignment from the prof and arrive already prepared (their idea, my practical application, not that I needed it to pass but why not maximize the grade?), foresight in general in that I pretty much always prepare a plan b in case things don't go as planned...
Another thing, although I don't really know what to call it, sixth sense or prediction or intuition? I don't know, the fact of the matter is that every now and then there is something that tells me “watch out” and then punctually something happens, or often I can predict exactly a a future event (in the human sphere), I bring back a few examples that perhaps give more insight: a few years ago we had mountain-bikes in the garage, they were not cheap, they were quality bikes, one evening I get out and see in the road a car stopped on the side, headlights on, standing there doing nothing, a voice says to me “look that's weird this thing, watch the bikes maybe it's better to bring them inside the house”, damn me had I ever done that, the next morning garage open and bikes gone; last week, wet garbage cans out for a few days, something tells me “it would be better to bring ours inside so that someone doesn't mind that it's been out for a good 2 days and spite me”, I didn't feel like it sincerely, it was hella hot, and so I didn't care, leaving it out, well in the afternoon it disappeared; with people instead I bring back my sister-in-law as an example, a bad tug of war with a very strange boyfriend, I tell the rest of the family “see in 6 months she gets pregnant”, response “eh but go figure they don't even live together” gotcha. .. My father-in-law, also with strange tastes and spins “you'll see in a few months he gets married to someone random caught on the internet”, said done that too ... At work when there are political-family entanglements as well, I don't get one wrong
