Something you're just good at with minimal effort and/or you learned much more quickly than average.

For me, it's paper snowflakes. My brain just seems to effortlessly figure out what cuts to make to the paper wedge to make it turn out exactly how I want it. Largely useless, but good fun and was a much-needed ego boost when I was a kid :]

I'm good at puzzles, particularly like jigsaw puzzles, but also games like flow where you match the pipes. I can sometimes do it so quickly I don't understand how I know what I'm doing, it's more like instinct.

I have the same superpower and I love all the Flow Free games. And you’re right, I can’t even explain to myself how I know what to do. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’m the same way with word puzzles/games, but I can’t even split a check without a calculator lol.
