Besides just looking cool with you rock the guitar or drums, learning to play an instrument is an amazing talent.

Dear future authors,

Please write that story you have in your head, on paper. You never know when your story could be the next “Harry Potter” Series. If you give yourself a chance, then by all means, start writing and create the story that was meant for the whole world to know.

However, if you write just for fun, then maybe submit a few stories to writing contests, so you as well could gain some money for future purposes.

11) Write a song

If you got a tune stuck in your head, maybe you could write down a few lyrics. You never know if you’re song writing to could get you to sing out on live stage, if that’s the dream you hold.
