What talent do you lack but wish you had? How would you use it if you had it?

I lack talent in music. There are some things that I learned — I had a knack for them, like math and science. I also am decent at some creative areas like writing and storytelling. But music is a big weakness for me. Whenever I tried to learn instruments, it was a slow process and never really clicked for me. When I was a kid, I had a dream of playing in a rock band, but I didn’t know the first thing about how to do that. Other dreams were ones that I had tangible ways to accomplish. 

My husband can hear a song and then reverse engineer it in his head and play it on the piano. He wasn’t taught to do that, it just comes naturally to him as a talent. I don’t even know where to start with that — it’s like hieroglyphics to me.
