In this videoconference talk from 26 March, 2021, Ajahn Anan discusses the various skills that one may have and develop in life.

"So someone who has an art or craft needs to have certain inner qualities. They need to have faith, and they need confidence in whatever they are doing. They need to believe that it is something truly good, and that it really has benefits. They have a heart that loves to do what they are doing. They are determined and firm to do it until they succeed."
