What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

When it comes to secret abilities, I always feel I’m under duress.

The most sought after, the most desirable, is the most likely I’ll never possess.

Yet it’s sought after by men of every earthly nation. 

It would be the Holy Grail, benefitting all of mankind.
