By making a mention of “extreme skills”, reference is being made to other-
than-ordinary abilities. People can develop these abilities in any activity 
that tests the physical/mental strength of an individual.
In some instances, the skills displayed are beyond the average human 
ability and almost reach a superhuman level. Here, it has to be specifically 
noted that such instances are very few; not every person can achieve it. 
But, markedly enhancing the already-present abilities is very much within 
the reach of almost every individual.
•When a person sincerely perseveres in the direction of acquiring extreme 
skills, they will invariably become more capable than they currently are.
•If a person is serious about obtaining the highest level of skills in any 
discipline, they must start with total confidence. If there is a lack of self-
confidence, they won’t be able to go too far; their skills will more or less 
remain stagnant.
•It’s of equal importance that they possess excellent levels of 
concentration. It is only then that they will be in a better position 
to gain new insights and hone their skills.
•Many people hold on to an erroneous notion about efforts to 
develop extreme skills. They say that this is something similar to 
wishful thinking, and it shouldn’t be attempted in the first place.
•But the fact is fully in stark contrast to it. The current skill sets 
of people get enhanced in those endeavors; they will have an 
upper hand over those who didn’t even try. And, this gives a 
major advantage in this age where there is fierce competition in 
all fields.
•At this juncture, an aspect is worthy of special mention. In 
ancient times, the acquisition of other-than-usual skills was 
something that was not uncommon. The number of people who 
achieved that was way higher than what it is today. In that 
bygone era, we had many art forms and specialized subjects 
that awakened the creativity latent in every human being. As a 
direct result of that, people had minimal hassles in displaying 
their full potential.
•These art forms and subjects were such that they were more 
concerned with positively influencing the overall lives of people. 
It was not just about becoming competent in only a few fields of 
activity.
•The above arts and subjects were taught by teachers full of 
positive energy and a powerful aura. In the typical classroom of 
those days, these energies were passed on to the students. As 
an outcome of that, their abilities increased in no uncertain 
terms.
•There were numerous disciplines, such as interpreting omens, 
fighting against enemies, wrestling, and proficiency in many 
languages. People who toiled with the utmost dedication in any 
of these areas were able to obtain extreme abilities. They were 
able to become phenomenally successful in their lives.
•It’s rather unfortunate that modernization has made people 
forget the importance of all those art forms and areas of study. 
As a logical consequence of that, people have begun to discount 
“extreme skills” as a thing that isn’t possible in practical life.
•The art forms of the ancient era enabled a person to keep their 
body, soul, and mind balanced. When people achieve that 
balance, exhibiting extreme skills is not that difficult.
•When people adopt a holistic approach toward becoming 
knowledgeable and more capable, acquiring extraordinary skills 
becomes comparatively simple. And, it is this holistic 
perspective that can be seen in age-old art forms and areas of 
study.
