Criticize my essay

This is an essay about what makes me stand out from my peers and i chose speaking. i didnt finish the last paragraph, my conclusion, but how does it sound so far?:


Talent is a special natural ability possessed by an individual. Some believe they contain no such talent, but it's understood that everyone has an extraordinary quality about themselves. Singing, dancing, and sports seem to be the most common skill that a good portion of people have, but my special talent is speaking. It's a distinctive attribute of mine that helps me stand out from my peers.

Anyone can speak. Teachers, preachers, and our previous and current presidents are required to speak an immeasurable amount. Delivering your voice to one person or a group of people is something anyone can do, but grabbing their interest and attention is not something everyone is capable of. Like writing, students believe the more words the better, which isn't necessarily true. Quality over quantity is entailed in reciting. Even though a legion of individuals are very stale when broadcasting, I'm confident, enthusiastic, and I know people are listening.

I remember when i made a speech to my English class sophomore year. Different groups were completing different debate discussions and i was chosen to speak for my group. Execution was our debate. I announced every negative concept that execution had to offer and the majority of my classmates were impressed with my standpoint. No one knew i had it in me to sound so intellectual considering i don't act that way around most of my friends. Witnessing what i was capable of with my words made me realize i could do so much more with my gift of voice.

Everyone has that phenomenal skill or talent that makes them stand out from the crowd.
